Shubman Gill was an integral part of Gujarat Titans' dream debut season in the Indian Premier League and he even played a crucial unbeaten knock in a low-scoring final to help them secure the title. However, a Twitter exchange between the team and the player has sparked rumours about him leaving the franchise. "It's been a journey to remember. We wish you all the best for your next endeavour, @ShubmanGill!" Gujarat Titans tweeted. Gill responded with a heart emoji and a hug emoji.
"What's going on ??" one user wrote.
"Uthappa retired so CSK 1st down has a void + This is Jadeja's home franchise #IPL2023. Are we in for something very big?" another user asked.

He went on to score 483 runs from 16 matches at a strike rate of 132.33. He scored four half-centuries, including his career best T20 score of 96.
