The clock is ticking and perhaps, all teams would have made a decision about their respective IPL 2026 retention lists; the announcement will be made on November 15. Gujarat Titans had an excellent season, and a lot of credit for that goes to their bowling unit. So, when it comes to picking their bowlers for retention, ahead of IPL 2026 auction, it could be a tough call for the management.
InsideSport takes a look at the list of bowlers that GT should look to retain.
Predicted GT Retention List (bowlers)
Rashid Khan: He only picked up 9 wickets in 15 matches, easily his worst season in the IPL, but then you can’t just not retain him. He could deliver big time for Gujarat.
Mohammed Siraj: Had a good run where he ended up with 16 wickets. A tad bit expensive, but still adds value to the team.
Prasidh Krishna: With 25 wickets in the season, he is 2025’s purple cap winner. His economy was under 9 as well, so he stays for obvious reasons.
Manav Suthar: Is yet to play an IPL game, but his stocks are on the rise in domestic cricket. He is a left-arm spinner and cat bat quite well too.
Sai Kishore: 19 wickets in 15 matches. That says it all. He is a must-have in the team for the next season as well.
Gurnoor Brar: He is tall, gets bounce and is doing well domestically. He should play a few matches for GT in the future.
Arshad Khan: This 27-year-old was expensive, but picked up 6 wickets in 9 matches. There must be a reason why he was played for that many reasons and should be retained.
GT full squad IPL 2025: Rashid Khan, Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, Rahul Tewatia, Shahrukh Khan, Kagiso Rabada, Jos Buttler, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Nishant Sindhu, Mahipal Lomror, Kumar Kushagra, Anuj Rawat, Manav Suthar, Washington Sundar, Gerald Coetzee, Arshad Khan, Gurnoor Brar, Sherfane Rutherford, Sai Kishore, Ishant Sharma, Jayant Yadav, Glenn Phillips, Karim Janat, Kulwant Khejroliya, Dasun Shanaka.
