Gujarat Titans are having a tough time in IPL 2024

Gujarat Titans are going through a tough time in the current Indian Premier League. They are last in the points table and their chances of qualifying for the playoffs seem insurmountable. Although they are still in competition, they seem like the underdogs for this sport.

The Gujarat Titans failed to replicate the same thing they did last year. Under the leadership of Shubman Gill, they have failed to play good cricket. In the 11 games, they have only achieved 4 victories. They would hope to win their last games and give joy to their fans.
