3 reasons why Sai Sudharshan should be retained by GT ahead of IPL 2025 mega auction

Gujarat Titans have set a huge benchmark for themselves after winning their maiden IPL title in their first season in 2022. While they managed to secure the runner-up position in 2023, they failed to make much of an impact in 2024. With the mega auctions for the 2025 season coming up, the Titans would look to rebuild their core and get back to the best.

One of the players who could become a part of Gujarat Titans’ core is Sai Sudharshan. The 2022 champions might be interested in retaining him and grooming him for a bigger role in the team, going ahead.

Here are reasons why Sai Sudharshan should be retained by GT ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction:

1. Future leader prospect

The young batter from Chennai has a very calm demeanour which is reflected in his batting. Along with Shubman Gill, he can be groomed to take up the leadership role as they try to build a legacy for themselves. For that, Sudharshan will have to be on Gujarat Titans’ long-term plans.

2. Building a core of youngsters

With Rashid Khan and Shubman Gill already in the mix, Sai Sudharshan has a lot to look up to concerning their achievements at a very young age. The Gujarat Titans would look to bring in more young players to the squad during the mega auction.

3. Consistency in the top-order

The left-handed batter has been very consistent in the marquee tournament, averaging 47 and playing with a strike rate of close to 140 in the 25 matches he has played for the Gujarat Titans. He has scored 1034 runs in the tournament, with 103 being his highest. The team management has shown a lot of trust in his batting skills and could continue to do that in the future.
