IPL 2024: Ashish Nehra Back This New Signing To Become “Main Actor” For Gujarat Titans

Published by Webster

The upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) marks the start of a new leadership era at Gujarat Titans (GT). The 2022 champions will be led by young batter Shubman Gill following Hardik Pandya‘s trade to Mumbai Indians ahead of IPL 2024 mini auction. With mixture of youth and experience, the franchise made some sensible buys at the IPL auction. While the franchise roped in Australian pacer Spencer Johnson and veteran Indian fast bowler Umesh Yadav, GT also bought uncapped batter Shahrukh Khan for Rs 7.4 crore. Ahead of the start of the new season, Nehra has backed Shahrukh to become the “main actor” for GT in the lower middle order. “We’re going to see Shahrukh Khan become the main actor. IPL is a very long tournament,” Nehra told the media. Nehra also emphasised that the players will have to take care of the body as the conditions will get tough during the latter stage of the tournament. “It’s not like we’re playing just three, four, five matches. Conditions are also difficult in May …

Published by Webster

Ahead of the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra is excited to see how Shubman Gill operates as a skipper in one of the biggest cricketing stages. After Hardik Pandya made a comeback to his boyhood franchise Mumbai Indians and replaced Rohit Sharma as the skipper of the five-time champions, Gill stepped in to fill the vacant space left by Hardik. Gill has had a fair share of experience in leading a side following his stints as a skipper for Punjab in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in the 2019-20 season and the India A side during their tour of New Zealand in early 2020. Nehra expressed his excitement to see the growth of Gill as a captain in the upcoming season. “Very excited to see how Gill operates. The whole of India, not only me. He is that kind of player. He is someone who is looking to play and looking to do well in all three formats. So we as a franchise, as a support …

“Never Tried To Convince Hardik Pandya To Stay Back”: Gujarat Titans Coach Ashish Nehra, Says This About Mumbai Indians

Published by Webster

Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra on Saturday said he never tried to convince Hardik Pandya against returning to Mumbai Indians but conceded that the star all-rounder’s experience would be dearly missed by the team in the IPL beginning on March 22. Pandya, who led GT to IPL title in their maiden year before taking them to the final last year, has moved back to Mumbai Indians as their skipper for the upcoming season. “In any sport, you have to move on. You cannot buy experience and to replace someone like Hardik Pandya or (an injured) Mohammed Shami isn’t going to be easy. But that’s a learning curve and that’s how team moves forward,” Nehra told mediapersons here on Saturday. Pandya-Nehra combination had worked wonders for GT in their first two seasons and the inevitable question arose whether the head coach tried to stop the skipper from joining Mumbai Indians. “I never tried to convince Pandya to stay back. As you play more, you gain experience. I could have stopped him had he gone to …

Published by Webster

Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar has backed Gujarat Titans (GT) to qualify for the playoffs in the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), despite captain Hardik Pandya‘s trade to Mumbai Indians. Under the guidance of former India pacer Ashish Nehra, Hardik led GT to the IPL title in their first season in the tournament in 2022. The franchise also reached the final of the tournament last year, losing to Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Ahmedabad. Despite Hardik’s departure, Gavaskar feels that Nehra can still inspire GT in the upcoming season with a new captain in Shubman Gill at the helm. “Over and above, Ashish Nehra will be the one who will be holding the reins. With Ashish Nehra holding the reins and guiding Shubman Gill, I won’t be surprised if the Gujarat Titans once again get into the top four,” Gavaskar said on Star Sports. Gavaskar, however, pointed out that Gill might not have the same impact as Hardik as a leader. “Shubman Gill, young cricketer, it’s difficult to say whether …

Pandya recently returned to Mumbai Indians and has been appointed as the skipper of the five-time champions. “To replace a player like Hardik Pandya is difficult considering his talent and experience. We have seen how he (Gill) has shaped up in the past three-four years. He is 24-25 years of age but he has a good head on his shoulders,” Nehra said in a virtual post-auction press meet on Tuesday night. The former India pacer said the franchise will back Gill irrespective of the results in the next edition of the IPL. “We believe in him. That is why we made him captain. I am not someone who will always go by results. Yes, results are important but when you come to captaincy you have to look at other things also. We are confident that Gill is the …

But Pandya, who had led only once at senior level in a tour game against Australia, proved his detractors wrong and led by example. “What has been very important from Gujarat point of view is the kind of coach I worked with. Ashish Nehra made a big difference in my life, because of our mindsets. We might be two different personalities, but we have very similar cricketing thoughts,” Pandya said after leading India to a 2-1 series win over Sri Lanka here on Saturday. “Because I was with him, it added value to my captaincy. It helped …

We might need a fast bowler. In a small auction you make changes as per requirements. We are no different,” Nehra told reporters. “We don’t have too many requirements as we haven’t released that many players. Domestic spot is also two or three left.
