Gujarat Titans About Gujarat Titans Team (GT)

Gujarat Titans have been impressive since the day they stepped into the league in 2022. Their debut season was phenomenal as they lifted the trophy in that season under the leadership of Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya. In their 2nd IPL season in 2023, they played brilliantly one more time and finished as the runners-up.

In a big move before the IPL auction 2024, GT traded their skipper Hardik Pandya to Mumbai Indians and appointed the young Indian batter Shubman Gill as the captain of the side for the 2024 edition.

  • Wriddhiman Saha: The wicket-keeper batter has been an impressive player in this format. He scored 371 runs in 17 matches at a strike rate of 129.26. Saha is a reliable batter for GT at the top-order and he has a vast experience of 161 IPL matches in which he has scored 2798 runs.

  • Mohit Sharma:Mohit Sharma was brilliant in the last season as he picked 27 wickets in 14 matches. He will be the leading pacer of the team in the absence of Shami. Sharma has taken 119 wickets in 100 IPL matches.

  • Noor Ahmad: The young spinner from Afghanistan gained a lot of attention in the last year for his performance. He picked 16 wickets in 13 games and provided the required support to his teammate Rashid Khan.

  • Rashid Khan: Rashid Khan is a player of all seasons. He was on a long break since the ODI World Cup 2023 due to back injury but he looks fit to join the GT camp for the IPL 2024. Rashid Khan picked 27 wickets in 17 matches last season and was the joint-second highest wicket taker for the team.

Expert Prediction

Expert Prediction for GT

Just when Gujarat Titans were trying to fill the void left by Hardik Pandya, they were hit with a bigger one, Mohammed Shami. The absence of both the players will be difficult to overcome for the GT side.

They have a good range of bowlers from pacers to spinners but they lack in all-rounders section. Designated all-rounders Abhinav Manohar, Sai Sudharsan and Vijay Shankar need to step up and pitch in with the ball as well now. Afghanistan’s pacer all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai is expected to fill in Pandya’s shoes but in this scenario he will have a lot of expectations on his shoulders in his debut IPL season.

Can GT Win IPL 2024?

Gujarat Titans have been an impressive team from day 1 and you can never write them off easily. They still possess some of the best power-hitters like David Miller, Shubman Gill, Matthew Wade and Kane Williamson. Young talent Shahrukh Khan, Sai Sudharsan, Abhinav Manohar are also ready to pitch in as we have seen the last two going strong in the last season.

GT’s match-winner Rahul Tewatia will also be a key player for the team as he has been in the past.

With this quality of squad even after Shami’s absence, GT can achieve any heights and we are expecting them to advance to the playoffs after which they can try to reach the finals for the 3rd time in a row.
