Noor Ahmad- Gujarat Titans’ New Player Who Can Stun Chennai Super Kings
Gujarat Titans already have the best spinner in Rashid Khan in their team, but a new Afgahni bowling all-rounder who can steal the spotlight in the first match of the tournament against CSK is Noor Ahmad, who bowls left-arm unorthodox spin.
He is hard to pick and has earned huge fame in the recent couple of months for his national side in international fixtures. Noor Ahmad is a surprise package who can be the unexpected ace for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2023.
Nobody has ever seen Noor Ahmad in the IPL, and that can prove to be an X factor in this edition of the tournament. The Afghanistan all-rounder is also a handy batter who can contribute with the bat as well.
