Gujarat Titans have roped in their former player Matthew Wade as the assistant coach ahead of IPL 2025. The former Australian keeper-batter was associated with GT for two seasons – in 2022 and in 2024. He did not participate in the IPL 2025 auction following his retirement from international cricket and desire to pursue coaching opportunities.
