Gujarat Titans Squad IPL 2024: Gujarat Titans complete players l, squad | Cricket News
IPL 2024 GT Squad Full Players L: The 2022 IPL champions Gujarat Titans are heading into the IPL auction with the highest amount left in their purse after trading their captain Hardik Pandya to Mumbai Indians.
With Shubman Gill taking over the captain’s mantle, last year’s runners up will have the experienced Kane Williamson as a guide to the relatively inexperienced leader while they would still need a player to plug in the gap left Pandya.
The Kiwis’ Rachin Ravindra will be on the Titans’ radar but if they can get their hands on him, Sai Sudharsan or wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha might have to vacate their place in the Top 3 lineup in order to accommodate him. Meanwhile, if they are looking for a cheaper option, Shardul Thakur, who was released from the Kolkata Knight Riders certainly fits the bill.
They will also need a replacement for the released West Indies pacer Alzarri Joseph as well as a keeper-batter back up for Wriddhiman Saha due to the release of KS Bharat. The Titans will most probably also keep an eye out for New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell and Afghanan’s Azmatullah Omarzai, both coming after a pretty strong 2023 World Cup in India.

Gujarat Titans have Rs 38.15 crores in their purse with 8 slots to be filled, including 2 overseas, for the IPL 2024 auction.
