Gujarat Titans made a huge impact when they entered the IPL in 2022. They won the title in their very first season and reached the final again in their second year under Hardik Pandya’s captaincy.
After Hardik Pandya left for Mumbai Indians and took over their captaincy, both Mumbai and Gujarat have failed to reach the IPL final. This year, Gujarat Titans will be led by Shubman Gill, and the team will be aiming to win their second IPL trophy.
Shubman Gill was not selected for India’s T20 World Cup squad, even though he is the captain of the Indian Test and ODI teams. He will surely be motivated to prove himself in IPL 2026. The full schedule released by BCCI on Thursday has now given the team a clear picture of their campaign.
Gujarat Titans look ready to make a strong comeback with a strong squad and motivated coach Ashish Nehra.
GT Squad: Shubman Gill (captain), Sai Sudharsan, Jos Buttler (wicketkeeper), Kumar Kushagra, Anuj Rawat, Tom Banton, Shahrukh Khan, Rashid Khan, Rahul Tewatia, Washington Sundar, Glenn Phillips, Jason Holder, Nishant Sindhu, Arshad Khan, Mohammad Siraj, Kagiso Rabada, Prasidh Krishna, Sai Kishore, Ishant Sharma, Manav Suthar, Gurnoor Singh Brar, Ashok Sharma, Luke Wood, Prithvi Raj Yara.
Gujarat Titans had a dream start to their IPL journey under Hardik Pandya’s captaincy, winning the title in their debut season and reaching the final the next year. Shubman Gill leads the team after two disappointing seasons, along with big names like Jos Buttler, Rashid Khan, Kagiso Rabada, and Mohammad Siraj.
In IPL 2026, GT fans hope the strong lineup can once again aiming for a championship under coach Ashish Nehra.
