Gujarat Titans Finalize IPL 2026 Squad, Jason Holder Addition Creates 'More Complete' Unit

The Gujarat Titans (GT) franchise has finalized its squad for the IPL 2026 season, aiming for a more balanced and complete unit following their playoff exit in 2025. The team retained its core leadership, including captain Shubman Gill and key overseas stars like Rashid Khan and Jos Buttler, while strategically addressing gaps in the mini-auction.

The most significant acquisition was Jason Holder, secured for INR 7 crore, providing the fast-bowling all-round option that the team lacked after Hardik Pandya's departure. GT also invested in domestic pace talent, adding uncapped pacers Ashok Sharma and Prithvi Raj Yarra, alongside overseas backup Tom Banton. This measured approach, prioritizing stability and tactical flexibility, positions the Titans as a formidable contender heading into the new season.
