However, the winners of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, ended all the speculations. It appears that GT’s earlier tweet was just a prank, as they confirmed that their star opener isn’t going anywhere.

Notably, Gill, who began his IPL journey at Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), was one of the Gujarat Titans’ pre-auction draft picks. He went on to score 483 runs from 16 games at a strike rate of 132.33. The right-handed batter smashed four half-centuries, including his career-best T20 score of 96.

In fact, Gill’s performances at the top of the order were instrumental in helping Gujarat beat Rajasthan Royals in the final to clinch the IPL 2022 title. In the summit clash, Gill scored an unbeaten 45 off 43 deliveries to help the Titans chase down the 131-run target.
