Shubman Gill: Before the next season of the Indian Premier League, fans can see big changes in every franchise. Due to the mega action, all the teams have been able to retain limited players. In this sequence, big news is coming out from the camp of Gujarat Titans. They have decided to change their captain before IPL 2025. In place of Shubman Gill, a senior player can be given the command of the team.

The blame fell on Shubman Gill

Before IPL 2024, Hardik Pandya left Gujarat Titans and joined Mumbai Indians. In such a situation, GT handed over the command of the team to Shubman Gill. But the team's performance was not good under his captaincy. The last season of the Indian Premier League did not go well for Gujarat Titans. They won only 5 out of 12 matches, while losing 7. At the same time, their last two matches were washed away due to rain.

This player will become the captain

According to social media reports, Gujarat Titans may hand over the captaincy to Vijay Shankar. 33 year old Vijay Shankar was not a part of GT's retained list. In such a situation, it is very difficult to trust this report. But there is a possibility that during the mega auction, the blue jersey team will again include him in their camp and declare him the captain. However, till now no official information has been revealed in this matter.

Such has been Gill's performance

Shubman Gill may not have been very successful as a captain, but he showed good performance with the bat. He scored 426 runs in 12 matches at an average of 38.73 and strike rate of 147.40, which also included 1 century and 2 half-centuries. Apart from this, Gill's overall IPL record is also quite excellent.
