This player got the captaincy of Gujarat in IPL 2024

After the departure of Hardik Pandya from Gujarat Titans, the team now needs a new captain. The team has many options, of which New Zealand captain Kane Williamson is also one. But the team management wanted to give captaincy to a player who had performed very well with his bat in the last season. We are talking about batsman Shubman Gill, the team management has made him the captain of the team in IPL 2024. He batted well for the team in both the seasons. Therefore, in such a situation, the team management thought it right to give him the command of GT after Hardik Pandya.

Shubman Gill was the highest run-scorer in IPL 2023. He had scored 890 runs in 17 innings. Gill had performed very well for Gujarat in the last two seasons. Now it will be very interesting to see what effect it has on his performance after the team management hands him the captaincy. Gujarat Titans have released Yash Dayal, KS Bharat, Odion Smith, Alzarri Joseph, Shivam Mavi, Urvil Patel, Pradeep Sangwan and Dasun Shanaka for the IPL Auction 2024.
