The Gujarat Titans (GT) head coach Ashish Nehra has revealed that they will look to sign a fast bowler in the upcoming IPL 2023 mini-auction. The auction will take place in Kochi on Friday, December 23.

The defending champions traded New Zealand fast bowler Lockie Ferguson to the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) along with Afghanistan wicketkeeper-batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz. As a result, they have a spot vacant and Nehra stressed that they will go all in for a fast bowler to strengthen their pace attack.

“Even if you win, you still make a few changes as per needs. We might need a fast bowler. In a small auction, you make changes as per requirements. We are no different,” Ashish Nehra told reporters.

“We don’t have too many requirements as we haven’t released that many players. The domestic spot is also two or three left. It’s not that you will (always) get the player you want. There are nine more teams. So when that player comes into auction, that is also important,” he added.


“Every year you want to win as a team” – Ashish Nehra

Under Ashish Nehra’s guidance and Hardik Pandya‘s leadership, the Gujarat Titans won the IPL in their maiden season earlier this year. Nehra stated that they will look to defend the title as no team take part just to participate.

“Every year you want to win as a team. Nobody is here to participate but to win. There will be one winner but the margin between win and loss is very little. Gurbaz is a good player and he had gone to a different franchise. There are lot of players who are international T20 captains, but don’t get picked in IPL,” Ashish Nehra concluded. 

It will be interesting to see if the Titans manage to defend the title in the upcoming edition of the IPL.
