Gujarat Titans Team History (2022–2025)

The Gujarat Titans quickly became a strong IPL team contender and celebrated their victory in their debut season (2022), they were the runners-up in 2023. Despite been a new-born who has always performed fantastic and leaped to the playoffs on each occasion just because of the good leadership skills, well-equipped squad and awesome playing strategy that has become their identity now and being known by everyone as the serious contenders of IPL. ​

Early Era (2022–2023)

And the GT team did exactly that in those two years, to blend extra-ordinary international stars with local players in proper proportion thereby helping the team emerge as a classic side -it played to entertain and it played to win. They won the IPL in 2022, a feat unimaginable for any other new team and became instantly likable even to detractors. The next season they also dominated the league greatly coached and eventually won but unfortunately lost the final on a narrow scoreline, again this confirmed they were coming forward and was great team to be around. ​

Dominance and Challenges (2024)

The side also did face giant hiccups in the year 2024 due to the departure of star players from the team, such as Hardik Pandya. So many things happened in that magical season and we ended at the 4th position in the League, but not with a performance which can be said that the three departments (batting, bowling & fielding) had been reached to a consistent level. There was a team captaincy coming in and Shubman Gill who was made the captain of the side ensured that there is not much of a change with Sriram supporting them, giving them confidence. ​

The Comeback (2025)

2025 GT made a wonderful comeback with such smashing achievements, as only the game can tell.’ Rebounding into the playoffs on the back of Gill and fast bowlers Siraj and Rabada’s batting. They were battered in a great Eliminator but if anything the season just enhanced their credentials as good second bananas. ​

Recent Years (2022–2025)

GT, despite of being a young team have announced themselves as the perennial play off contenders every season. They have harnessed the fearlessness of youth to the wisdom that experience provides, and at every turn benefited from strong leadership and the necessary performances of their superstars. Theirs is a quest for steady progress and gradually becoming the best IPL side over time. ​
