Gujarat Titans on Sunday retained premier all-rounder Hardik Pandya as their captain for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season, amid speculations that he could join Mumbai Indians ahead of the December 19 auction. It was expected to be an all-cash trade with Mumbai but in the end Hadik and the Titans found a way out to continue their journey together, at least for now. While the Mumbai side named Rohit Sharma as their captain for IPL 2024, England pacer Jofra Archer was released.
