Gujarat Titans playing XI: Gujarat Titans (GT) have emerged from the IPL 2024 Auction with a well-rounded squad, strategically addressing key areas to fortify their team. With a squad strength of 25, including 8 overseas players, the Titans have made significant additions to their lineup.

The key acquisitions for the Titans include:

  • Spencer Johnson (INR 10 crore): The big-ticket purchase adds firepower to the pace attack.
  • Shahrukh Khan (INR 7.4 crore): The dynamic finisher further strengthens the team’s batting prowess.
  • Umesh Yadav (INR 5.8 crore): Pace reinforcement for Mohammed Shami, providing depth to the fast-bowling department.
  • Robin Minz (INR 3.6 crore), Sushant Mishra (INR 2.2 crore), Kartik Tyagi (INR 60 lakh), Azmatullah Omarzai (INR 50 lakh): Young talents who add depth and variety to the squad.

Areas of concern for Gujarat Titans:

While the Titans have made strategic wins, there are areas they missed out on, notably the absence of a seasoned Indian wicketkeeping backup to Wriddhiman Saha. This gap might pose challenges in accommodating Kane Williamson in the playing XI. Despite a spirited attempt with a bid of INR 24.50 crore, the Titans couldn’t secure Mitchell Starc.
