GT in IPL 2026 Auction: Gujarat OUT
GT IPL Auction 2026 Live Updates: Ahead of the IPL 2026 auction scheduled for December 16, 2025, Gujarat Titans (GT) have retained a strong core as they look to build a balanced squad for the upcoming season. The franchise has placed its trust in captain Shubman Gill, along with match-winners such as Rashid Khan, Sai Sudharsan, Jos Buttler, Mohammed Siraj, and Rahul Tewatia, ensuring stability across both batting and bowling departments. However, GT have also made a few tough calls by releasing players including Mahipal Lomror and Gerald Coetzee to create room for fresh options. With a remaining purse of ₹12.9 crore, the Titans will enter the auction aiming to fill five vacant slots, four of which are overseas, as they look to fine-tune their combination for IPL 2026.
