“GT is definition of peak efficiency, everyone knows their roles and delivers” – Twitter erupts after GT thump SRH by 34 runs and qualify for IPL 2023 playoffs

Gujarat Titans’ success template had helped them make giant strides in the sixteenth edition of the Indian Premier League. Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans seems to be braving the challenges pretty well and thriving under pressure.

No matter how they have been through in tricky situations, they literally have a team full of dynamic players who know how to execute their roles, which helps the team to get their job done.

Gujarat Titans have well and truly performed in the games when it mattered the most. They are sitting on top of the points table with nine wins so far from 13 games in the league stage this season. GT have collected as many as 18 points from the league stage, with one more game to be played.

The defending champions have come out with a proper plan in a bid to defend the title this season. So far, it’s been really good for them, courtesy of a power-packed and star-studded squad that is willing to give everything to scoop out a result.
