Gujarat Titans: Know All About GT Owners, Captains, Coaches, Records and More

The Gujarat Titans (GT) made their grand entry into the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2022, and the rest is history. In the very first season, under the leadership of Hardik Pandya, GT went on to lift the trophy.

It was an incredible journey for the entire team because winning a title in the first year of the inclusion isn’t easy. Pandya’s top-notch captaincy was the main reason behind their success. Later in 2023, skipper Pandya led them to their 2nd back-to-back finals in the league. However, they lost the finals against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Ahmedabad.

Despite losing the finals, GT was highly talked about as one of the best teams in the tournament for their consistency in two years. The tables turned for the franchise when Hardik Pandya went back to his former team, Mumbai Indians (MI), before the IPL 2024, and the young Shubman Gill was handed over the responsibility of the team.

The young lad put a lot of effort into the team, both on the bat and on the field, but failed to qualify for the playoffs. This season, GT are back with Gill as their captain. It will be an intriguing season to watch, with many new captains and a few old ones.

Gujarat Titans Jersey & Logo

The Gujarat Titans (GT) have a unique jersey and are, without a doubt, one of the best in the league. The dark blue color, along with the golden lightning effect, makes the jersey look super chic and simple at the same time. The color combination is something that highlights the features of the jersey really well.

The logo has a simple design as well, with the team’s name written in a triangular shape. Inside the shape, GT’s name and a lightening symbol are drawn to keep the logo creative and uncomplicated.

Gujarat Titans Captain, Vice-Captain, Details

In the 18th season of the IPL, GT will be led by none other than Shubman Gill. The 25-year-old young lad will look forward to having a great season ahead. This year, it is extremely important for Gill to prove his captaincy since he is the vice-captain of Team India. In order to avoid scrutiny regarding captaincy in the later stage, he must prove his worth and show the world why he’s been trusted with such a responsibility.

Rashid Khan is the vice-captain of GT. He has been phenomenal throughout the three years he has been with the team. Hence, he has been given the responsibility of the team for the upcoming season.

History

Back in 2021, when the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced the inclusion of two teams in the tournament, there was a total of 22 companies who played their bids for the franchises. However, the base price for the two teams was quite high. That is the reason why only six companies showed full interest in the offer.

So, BCCI asked them to put a price individually or in a consortium of three companies. CVC Capitals Partners bought the team for INR 5,625 crores in 2021. However, in 2025, Torrent Group have the majority stakes in the team. CVC Capitals sold 67% stakes to the Torrent Group ahead of the IPL 2025.
