IPL 2026 Season Outlook
Gujarat Titans won the IPL in their debut season and remain a force under Shubman Gill's growing captaincy. Rashid Khan is the cornerstone of their bowling, and if Mohammed Shami returns to full fitness, GT's pace attack will be lethal. The franchise needs Gill to convert his brilliant starts into match-defining innings consistently.
