"Every Player Wants To...": Star Pakistan Pacer Expresses Desire To Play In IPL

Pakistan's star pacer Hasan Ali has expressed his desire to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL). He said that he will definitely play the tournament if given an opportunity.

Gujarat Titans Break Silence On Hardik Pandya's Move To Mumbai Indians, Explain Reason Behind IPL Trade Deal

Gujarat Titans on Monday appointed Shubman Gill as their captain for the 2024 season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) following Hardik Pandya's decision to move back to Mumbai Indians.

Once Pandya's exit was sure, 24-year-old opener Gill was an obvious captaincy choice, having got the coveted 'orange cap' in the last season with 890 runs, second to only Virat Kohli's all-time record of 973. "I am delighted and proud to assume the captaincy of Gujarat Titans and thank the franchise for their trust in me to lead such a fine team. We have had two exceptional seasons and I keenly look forward to leading the team with our exciting brand of cricket," Gill said in a statement.
