Weaknesses
- ✗Lost Mohammed Shami to LSG — their pace spearhead

IPL 2026 Season Outlook
Gujarat Titans won the IPL in their debut season (2022) and remain a force under Shubman Gill's captaincy. Rashid Khan continues to be the world's best T20 spinner, and the addition of Jos Buttler gives GT a match-winning WK-batter. The pace duo of Rabada and Siraj is fearsome. If Gill fires at the top, GT are genuine championship contenders.
