Gujarat Titans enters the IPL 2026 auction needing a direct replacement for Sherfane Rutherford as its designated finisher. Beyond late-overs power, GT is also in the market for at least one all-rounder to restore balance across batting depth and bowling options.
Gujarat Titans (GT) Auction Strategy 2026
Primary needs: Finisher, all-round depth
With Sherfane Rutherford no longer in the squad, GT lacks a dedicated finisher. Its middle-to-lower order is now heavy on accumulators and light on boundary-hitters.
GT could also benefit from at least one all-rounder to regain the flexibility that defined its title-winning season.
Purse remaining: Rs. 12.90 crore
Current squad: Anuj Rawat, Glenn Phillips, Gurnoor Brar, Ishant Sharma, Jayant Yadav, Jos Buttler, Kagiso Rabada, Kumar Kushagra, Manav Suthar, Mohammed Siraj, Arshad Khan, Nishant Sindhu, Prasidh Krishna, R Sai Kishore, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, B Sai Sudharsan, M Shahrukh Khan, Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar.
