Gujarat Titans (GT) has been nominated for the ‘Popular Choice – Club of the Year’ award for the upcoming Sportstar Aces Awards 2023.
With the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) introducing two new teams in the Indian Premier League in 2022 – GT and Lucknow Super Giants – there was a window of opportunity for more players.
And under the leadership of Hardik Pandya, GT played like champions right from the beginning, clinching the title on debut.
