New Delhi: Gujarat Titans (GT) had a decent outing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 mega auction as they entered the arena in Jeddah with a purse value of Rs. 69 crore and claimed some big names to bolster their squad for the IPL 2025. The two-day event concluded on Monday and Gujarat had their major buys on Day 1 (Sunday) including as many as three marquee players out of the 12 players divided into sets of two each.
Their top buy was Jos Buttler whom they picked for Rs. 15.75 crore. The English wicketkeeper batter was shockingly released by Rajasthan Royals (RR) ahead of the mega auction but has now found himself a new home now. They bagged their next marquee player in the form of South African pacer Kagiso Rabada who saw his bidding cross Rs. 10 crore mark and Gujarat finally got hold of him at Rs. 10.75 crore.
Team India pacer Mohammed Siraj, who is currently in Australia playing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, was picked by the Titans for a huge sum of Rs. 12.25 crore. He was expected to be retained by his former franchise Royals Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at this price but they did not. The Titans got hold of another Team India quick Prasidh Krishna, putting him in the kitty after shelling out Rs. 9.5 crore on him.
Washington Sundar, Sherfane Rutherford, and Gerald Coetzee were some other top picks for them at the IPL 2025 mega auction. They spent Rs. 68.85 crore at the auction and filled all the 25 players’ slots, with Rs. 15 lakh still in hand. They have 18 Indian players and eight overseas in their IPL 2025 squad.
