IPL 2024: Shubman Gill appointed as the new captain of Gujarat Titans

Gujarat Titans have recently released their captain Hardik Pandya after trading him to Mumbai Indians and have appointed the opening batsman Shubman Gill as their captain ahead of IPL 2024. The surprising choice of backing Gill ahead of Kane Williamson as the captain is gaining a lot of support from the Cricket fraternity. 

After being appointed as the captain, Shubman Gill said, “I am delighted and proud to assume the captaincy of Gujarat Titans and thank the franchise for their trust in me to lead such a fine team. We have had two exceptional seasons and I keenly look forward to leading the team with our exciting brand of cricket”, 

“Shubman Gill has shown growth in stature and standing over the last two years at the highest level of the game. We’ve seen him mature not only as a batter but also as a leader in cricket. His contribution on the field has helped Gujarat Titans emerge as a formidable force, guiding the team through a successful campaign in 2022 and a strong run in 2023. His maturity and skill is evident in his on-field performance and we are extremely excited to embark on a new journey with a young leader like Shubman at the helm”, said Vikram Solaki, Director of Cricket, Gujarat Titans.
