Gujarat Titans (GT) They come into the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL) on the back of a stellar season last time, where they finished third in the standings. Under the leadership of Shubman Gill, the Ahmedabad-based franchise played fearless cricket with the bat, knowing that they had a formidable bowling lineup to sort things out in the second innings.
GT has a well-balanced playing eleven that relies heavily on its Indian contingent and foreign superstars to be the backbone of their success. Some of the overseas players in their ranks are genuine match-winners, widely regarded as among the greatest T20 players in the world.
With such a stacked lineup, it may be difficult for other talented players to find a place in the team and showcase their potential to the watching world. However, the doors are never closed for any player, and they can easily miss out on playing for their franchise due to injury or impact during training and net sessions.
Here are 3 GT players who could be ruled out for the entire IPL 2026:
3. Ishant Sharma (right arm fast medium bowler)
Ishant Sharma In his illustrious IPL career he has played for six franchises, with the year 2025 being his first season with GT. He played seven matches and took four wickets at an economy rate of 11.18.
The 37-year-old, who has played more than 100 Tests for India, may be left behind in the pecking order in 2026 as players like Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Siraj and Kagiso Rabada are expected to play the majority of the season. Ishant's experience will still be a huge asset for the team, which has many young players.
