The Gujarat Titans supporters may see a change in leadership as director of cricket Vikram Solanki and head coach Ashish Nehra may retire from the team. Since the team’s 2022 inaugural season, when they won the IPL 2022 competition, Nehra and Solanki have been a part of the team. They finished second in the IPL 2023 season and, with the departure of skipper Hardik Pandya, had a terrible performance in the IPL 2024 season.
The most recent information from News18 suggests that former Indian cricket player Yuvraj Singh may become a member of the GT coaching staff prior to their upcoming season. After being named the Pakistan men’s team’s white-ball coach, Gary Kirsten, who was guiding the team, also departed the camp.
Many changes are anticipated. It’s very possible that Ashish Nehra and Vikram Solanki will move on, and talks about Yuvraj Singh have already started. Although nothing is official yet, there may be significant changes to the Gujarat Titans’ coaching staff in the near future, a report’s source stated.
IPL arena coaching changes prior to the upcoming season
Ahead of IPL 2024, Hardik was traded to the Mumbai Indians in a record-breaking transaction, and GT appointed Shubman Gill as their new captain. Nehra and Gill suffered as a result of the team’s failure to qualify for the playoffs. Notable members of the GT coaching team include Mithun Manhas, Aashish Kapoor, Naeem Amin, and Narender Negi.
Another IPL-related development is that Rahul Dravid, the former head coach of India, is probably going to rejoin the Rajasthan Royals as a mentor. It is noteworthy that Dravid captained and coached RR in the IPL before coaching India to the T20 World Cup victory in 2024. Additionally, the seasoned coach led India’s Under-19 squad to victory in the 2018 U19 World Cup.
