Gujarat Titans’ IPL 2024 campaign under the leadership of Shubman Gill has started with mixed results. After a thrilling victory over Mumbai Indians, they suffered a heavy defeat against Chennai Super Kings.
Gill’s captaincy has been a topic of discussion since Hardik Pandya’s departure to MI. Former India pacer S Sreesanth believes that Gill’s youth and lack of experience could be an advantage for GT. He suggests that Gill will give bowlers more freedom and responsibility, which could lead to improved performances.
Against CSK, Gill struggled with the bat, scoring only 8 runs. He acknowledged that the team was outplayed and that they need to learn from their mistakes. Gill expressed optimism about the season, stating that it’s better to have a setback early on than later.
Despite the loss, Gill remains excited about his role as captain. He believes that the team has a lot of potential and that he is eager to lead them to success.
GT will face Sunrisers Hyderabad in their next match on Sunday. They will be looking to bounce back from their defeat and establish themselves as a contender for the IPL title.
