Gujarat Titans won the IPL in their debut season (2022) and made the final again in 2023. Since then, the departure of key players has forced a rebuild. The question for 2026: is the rebuild complete?
Losing Hardik Pandya changed GT's identity. He was their heartbeat — the aggressive all-rounder who could win games with bat or ball. The new core is younger and less proven, but potentially more dynamic.
GT's team culture is their secret weapon. The franchise breeds fighters. Their record in close games (under 10-run margins) is the best in the IPL since their inception. That clutch gene doesn't disappear overnight.
The batting order lacks a proven IPL superstar. They need one of their young Indian batsmen to have a breakout season. If nobody steps up, they'll struggle to post competitive totals consistently.
