Let us tell you that Gujarat Titans, who are dreaming of becoming champions for the second time in a row, are eagerly waiting for the return of their captain in Qualifier 2. Don't know where Hardik Pandya, who made Gujarat the champion by raining fruits in the last season, has gone this season. While on top of the points table, Gujarat has made its place in the playoffs, but Shubman Gill or Vijay Shankar cannot be relied upon every time.
The Qualifier 1 against Chennai Super Kings is proof of how the poor form of the captain can hurt the team. Please tell that if the bat of Shubman Gill and Vijay Shankar did not work then the team lost the match itself. As a result of which the chance of reaching the final directly slipped from their hands and now they have to face the winning team of Eliminator Mumbai Indians. The biggest tension of Gujarat Titans is the form of their captain. Because if either Gill or Shankar misses against Mumbai. So Gujarat has nothing left to lose.
