The Gujarat Titans have retained five players for the IPL 2025. They have tried to maintain their core, and Rashid Khan, Shubman Gill and B Sai Sudharsan are integral part of it. As a result, they have had to release a few of their big names. Among these names are some overseas players who have played a significant role for the team in the last couple of seasons.
Here are three overseas players whom GT will look to repurchase during the IPL 2025 mega auction -
3. Noor Ahmad
Why Will GT Repurchase Noor Ahmad?
Noor Ahmad has established himself as a very effective bowler in the format. The young Afghan spinner is often called the mirror image of the superstar Rashid Khan. Besides having actions similar to Rashid's, Noor Ahmad's efficiency is identical to that of the star. The duo formed a dangerous partnership, strangling the opposition in the middle overs and seizing the momentum for the team. Given the partnership Rashid and Noor have developed, it is understandable that GT might look to repurchase him during the IPL 2025 mega auction.
2. Azmatullah Omarzai
Why Will GT Repurchase Azmatullah Omarzai?
The Afghan all-rounder can open the bowling and also bat in the top order in the T20 format. Azmatullah Omarzai is a stable and consistent run-scorer who can add solidity to any batting order. Besides, Omarzai can also bowl some effective overs with the new ball and give more flexibility and depth to the team. Being a high utility player, the Titans might repurchase this Afghan Omarzai.
1. David Miller
Why Will GT Repurchase David Miller?
The Gujarat Titans have had a great couple of seasons since their induction into the league. While GT won the title in 2022, they finished the runners-up in 2023. One of the biggest factors in their successful run was the contribution of David Miller as a finisher. The southpaw bailed the team out of pressure on more than one occasion and also provided them with powerful finishes. Given his contributions to the team, they are expected to try repurchasing him to strengthen their core further.
