Below average GT bowling attack

Srikkanth takes a dig at Gujarat Titans’ bowling line-up and claims that the team can never win with such feeble bowling options. He further says that the Shubman Gill-led side just got lucky against MI in their opening game of IPL 2024.

The former India selector also questions the intent of GT batters as they chased the mammoth total. Citing the knocks of Sai Sudharshan and Vijay Shankar, Srikkanth claims the batters were playing a Test match rather than a T20. Srikkanth further says the absence of Shami and losing Hardik Pandya cannot be substituted for by GT no matter who they field in their spots.
