Young Player To Take Up Gujarat Titans Captaincy?
Teams might give a player and get another in return.
By: Tupaki Desk | 25 Nov 2023 9:36 AM GMTIPL is one of the biggest sports tournaments in the world that enjoys massive craze. The franchises get players in the auction where they will bid and those who get to bid a high price will get the players. There is another option which is trade. Teams might give a player and get another in return.
The IPL trade might see a big development with maverick all-rounder Hardik Pandya’s homecoming. Reports say that an all-cash trade was almost fixed under which Hardik Pandya might be traded to Mumbai Indians. For this Gujarat Titans team might get as much as Rs 15 crores.
Hardik Pandya started his IPL career with Mumbai Indians and played a pivotal role in the team lifting four titles. He is a proven batsman and bowler. If everything goes well he might join the Mumbai Indians soon. The last date for the trade is November 26.
Hardik Pandya who captained the new team Gujarat Titans lifted the trophy and the team ended up as the runner-up. So the focus went on to the debate of who will replace the all-rounder as the skipper of the team.
Though a few names are said to have been considered, young batsman Shubman Gill might get the big elevation if everything goes well. Kane Williamson is also a part of the team. However, the management is said to prefer Gill keeping future needs in mind.
Shubman Gill is just 24 years old now and he can extend his services to the team for not less than a decade given his age. If he is groomed well he can come in handy. So he is said to be the top preference by the team management. We might hear an official word from the Gujarat Titans management soon. Let us wait and see what happens with this.
