2026 Result
Missed playoffs
GT won the IPL on their debut season in 2022 — a remarkable achievement. In 2026, Shubman Gill continued to mature as captain and Rashid Khan remained elite, but a mid-table finish showed the squad still has work to do to add a second title.
✅ Strengths
- ✓Won IPL 2022 in debut season — winning DNA
- ✓Most complete pace attack (Prasidh + Siraj + Rabada + Holder)
- ✓Rashid Khan at peak — best T20 spinner in world
- ✓Shubman Gill mature, consistent run-scorer
- ✓Strong backroom staff (Ashish Nehra tactically astute)
⚠️ Weaknesses
- ✗Top-order batting relatively new partnership
- ✗Limited Indian finishing depth
- ✗Overseas death bowling reliance on one specialist
- ✗Narendra Modi Stadium dew may neutralize Rashid impact
🎯 IPL 2026 Season Recap
GT finished 5th, just outside the playoff cut-off, despite Gill and Sai Sudharsan both having strong individual seasons at the top of the order. Rashid Khan and Rabada carried the bowling, but a soft middle-overs patch in the batting cost them the points that would have sealed a top-4 finish.
