Gujarat Titans are set to face Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 clash on Tuesday. With their star player Kane Williamson ruled out for the season due to a knee injury, the Titans have to rejig their squad. Defending champions GT had a perfect start to their campaign, winning the season opener against Chennai Super Kings. But they will face a tough challenge against Delhi Capitals, who are determined to shed their underachievers’ tag.
The Gujarat Titans have one of the strongest squads in the tournament, featuring a line-up of power-hitters and talented all-rounders. Shubhman Gill, who played a match-winning knock of 63 in the opener, will lead the batting department, alongside Sai Sudharsan, Abhinav Manohar, Vijay Shankar, and David Miller. Skipper Hardik Pandya, Rashid Khan, and Odean Smith are among the all-rounders who will provide the team with the necessary firepower.
