Gujarat Titans (GT), winners of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL), had the simplest task at the IPL 2023 auction, as they only needed to fill 5-7 positions in their quest for a championship defense.
The Hardik Pandya-led team completed a number of major moves, sending Lockie Ferguson and Rahmanullah Gurbaz to the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in all-cash swaps, giving them a chance to be in bidding wars during the auction. They did, however, sign Kane Williamson and Odean Smith at their base prices.
Following that, the Titans acquired two outstanding Indian players in wicket-keeper batter K.S. Bharat and bowler Shivam Mavi, before acquiring the first-ever Ireland player in the cash-rich league in pacer Joshua Little and then former Indian pacer Mohit Sharma.
Gujarat Titans' IPL 2023 auction picks: Kane Williamson (INR 2 crore), Odean Smith (INR 50 lakh), KS Bharat (INR 1.2 crore), Shivam Mavi (INR 6 crore), Urvil Patel (INR 20 lakh), Joshua Little (INR 4.4 crore), Mohit Sharma (INR 50 lakh).
