Gujarat Titans have finalised their list of retentions ahead of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 mega auction and Shubman Gill will continue to lead the side in the new cycle. In an interesting development, Gill has agreed for lesser pay to allow the 2022 champions to retain their core group of players and go into the mega auction with a substantial amount in the purse.
They are likely to retain as many as five players, including Gill, and the captain's agreement to take a step back on the payscale has made that move possible as they are now set to keep the services of star spinner Rashid Khan, who has been with them since the team's first season in 2022. It is understood that Gill had no second thoughts on the consensus as he is focussed on building the squad for the future, and didn't want the franchise to burn a hole in their purse.
