IPL 2024: The 2022 champions and 2023 runners up - Gujarat Titans have big shoes to fill-in after the departure of Hardik Pandya to Mumbai Indians and key pacer Mohammed Shami getting ruled out of the upcoming IPL season. In their two IPL seasons so far, GT have finished on top of the league table in both seasons.

One of the two big changes is Mohammed Shami. The pacer who took 28 wickets in IPL 2023 has been ruled out due to an ankle injury. Australian wicket-keeper Matthew Wade is also likely to miss the beginning of the season due to duties with Tasmania in the Sheffield Shield final. Uncapped player Robin Minz recently got into an accident in Ranchi and is doubtful to start the season. He was signed for Rs 3.6 crore.
