**Ahmedabad, India** – Speculation is rife that Shubman Gill may be ousted as captain of the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the upcoming IPL 2025 season. Gill was appointed captain after Hardik Pandya’s departure to Mumbai Indians, but the team’s performance under his leadership has reportedly been underwhelming.
The rumors intensified after Gujarat Titans posted a picture of Rashid Khan standing in front of a blackboard with the words “New Beginning” on their social media. While the team management has yet to officially comment, many interpret this as a hint towards a captaincy change, with Rashid Khan a potential replacement.
Gill’s recent struggles extend beyond the IPL. He was dropped from the playing XI for the fourth Test against Australia and was also omitted from the recent India T20 squad, raising concerns about his form. His absence from the 2024 T20 World Cup further fuels the speculation surrounding his future as GT captain. The team’s performance and Gill’s individual form will likely be key factors in any decision regarding his captaincy.
