The Gujarat Titans had an amazing outing in 2022, clinching the IPL trophy in their inaugural season under captain Hardik Pandya and coach Ashish Nehra. In 2023, they reached the finals but narrowly lost to the Chennai Super Kings. However, IPL 2024 saw changes with Shubman Gill leading the team as captain, resulting in a disappointing season where they finished 8th on the points table with 5 wins and 7 losses.
With these developments, there are a few changes we are expecting. One is that GT is looking for a new owner, and the other is that we might see a coaching change as well, following last season’s captaincy change.
Reports suggest that GT is seeking new coaches for IPL 2025, as Ashish Nehra may part ways after an impressive three-year tenure with Gujarat. The question now is, who will replace Ashish Nehra? According to reports, Yuvraj Singh is gaining traction as a potential successor. Can the southpaw fulfill the expectations set by Ashish Nehra?
GT’s New Coach Yuvraj Singh to Join Gujarat Titans?
Although there is no confirmation yet, reports spreading like wildfire suggest that the Gujarat Titans are in talks with Yuvraj Singh to join the franchise as coach ahead of IPL 2025. Ashish Nehra and Vikram Solanki are potentially leaving the coaching staff. This comes after batting coach Gary Kirsten left his mentoring position at the franchise to join the Pakistan cricket team, leaving the position vacant.
The coaching staff changes could significantly impact the team’s performance. Vikram Solanki, the Director of Cricket, has played a crucial role in the team’s strategy. During their debut season in 2022, the team achieved remarkable success under the guidance of Nehra and Solanki. Former India pacer Ashish Nehra has had a successful stint with the team. The GT coaching staff is expected to undergo major changes. Discussions about the GT coaching staff ahead of the next season are already underway.
Gujarat Titans ahead of the 2025 IPL season are looking at a major reshuffle. The head coach position is also under speculation. Head coach Ashish Nehra’s achievements with the team include winning the IPL title in their debut season. Indian cricket legend Yuvraj Singh is being considered for a coaching role.
The Indian Premier League’s upcoming season will see significant changes in coaching staff across franchises. Vikram Solanki’s potential departure is part of this reshuffle. Yuvraj Singh’s mentoring of players like Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma adds to his credentials for the role.
