IPL 2025: 3 Match winners in Gujarat Titans (GT) squad

Gujarat Titans (GT) have assembled a 25-member squad and, under Shubman Gill’s captaincy, they will aim for a stronger performance this season compared to the last IPL. 

After winning the title in 2022 and finishing as runners-up in 2023, they failed to qualify for the playoffs last season, ending in eighth place with 12 points from 14 games. To bounce back, some key players will need to step up with match-winning performances.

Here are the 3 Match winners in the GT squad for IPL 2025

Shubman Gill

This is a huge season for Shubman Gill, both as a batter and as captain. Despite GT missing out on the playoffs last season, the franchise has shown faith in their young skipper. Now, Gill will look to establish himself as a leader. He has been one of GT’s best batters. In the 2023 season, he won the Orange Cap after scoring 890 runs in 17 matches, but he was not the captain then. Last season, with the added responsibility of captaincy, his performance dipped slightly as he managed 426 runs in 12 matches. For GT to succeed this season, Gill needs to lead from the front, especially with the bat, and deliver match-winning performances.

Glenn Phillips

The star all-rounder from New Zealand can be a match-winner for GT this season. Not just with the bat or ball, but also with his fielding, as he often takes stunning catches with ease—just like he did in the recent Champions Trophy. Such efforts can turn crucial moments in GT’s favour. Glenn Phillips is known for his explosive power-hitting in the middle overs. He can also bowl effective spin and provide unexpected breakthroughs. With his all-round abilities, Phillips is a player to watch out for this season.

Rashid Khan

No one can deny that Rashid Khan remains one of the most impactful players with his all-round abilities. GT fans will once again expect the Afghan spin-bowling all-rounder to deliver. His four overs will be crucial for Gill, and it will be interesting to see how the skipper uses him based on the team’s needs. But Rashid’s impact is not limited to bowling. His lower-order batting, especially his ability to smash sixes using his wrist and bottom hand, is a treat to watch. He can change the course of a match at any stage.
