3 Gujarat Titans players who might be benched in IPL 2026
GT have a well-balanced playing XI which relies heavily on its Indian contingent with overseas superstars forming the backbone for their success.
1. Anuj Rawat (Wicketkeeper-batter)
Anuj Rawat was picked up by GT during the 2025 mega auction for INR 30 lakh. Despite not playing a game for the franchise last year, the 26-year-old was retained by the 2022 champions ahead of the 2026 season.
It is looking difficult for Rawat to get a game this year as well. The left-handed batter sees captain Gill, Sai Sudharsan and Buttler ahead of him to bat in the top order. If GT need a wicketkeeper replacement, they have Kumar Kushagra in their ranks, who was third-highest runs-scorer at the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and formed part of the title-winning Jharkhand side.
