Shubman Gill's last IPL season was a tough one too. This time, the Gujarat Titans finished eighth in the standings with only five wins in 14 matches. Gill took over a leadership role, but in his debut season, he didn't impress much. Well, GT might not change their captain this season, but here are a few contenders to replace him. The Afghan wizard of spin has already proved he can become a game-changer in T20 cricket. He has tremendously impressive leadership skills, having captained for various teams, including MI Emirates in the ILT20. The ability to inspire his players with the ball and with his fielding makes him a very strong contender. With all his tactics and a mind for a match-winning plan, he can really bring in this aggressive leadership that is GT. Jos Buttler is one player who is not over-explosive batting, but he differs from his different form of leadership. His experience in those crucial moments, especially in the IPL, makes him that really valuable candidate. Buttler has been a big part of GT, and talking about how his journey has transformed from a reliable collecting finisher into a captaincy contender proves really well for him. His calm nature can really provide that stability under pressure, as GT would require in such crunch moments.

Even in a nascent career, Sudharsan displays immense composure and a steady head on the ground, adding weight to his candidature as an IPL captain in times to come. Gujarat Titans, the title holders, had a rough season, mainly because of three reasons: the move of skipper Hardik Pandya to Mumbai Indians, inconsistent batting form in Shubman Gill, and the injury of pace ace Mohammed Shami, which meant he was unavailable for the entire tournament.
