Three players who can replace Mohammed Shami in Gujarat Titans squad for IPL 2024

Gujarat Titans have been dealt a huge blow as their ace pace bowler Mohammed Shami has been ruled out of the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). A BCCI source has confirmed to PTI about the development as it has also been stated that the cricketer will need a surgery on his left ankle and will be leaving for the UK very soon. Shami's absence will definitely hurt the Titans who won the IPL in their debut season in 2022 and made it to the final last season.

Shami had won the purple



cap last year with 28 wickets to his name in 17 matches at an average of 18.61 and he will be missed in IPL 2024. Gujarat Titans will now be looking for a replacement fast bowler but certainly, they won't get a player of Shami's calibre in the squad. Moreover, the franchise cannot pick an overseas player as replacement either as all their slots are filled.

Options for Shami's replacement in GT squad:

1. Kamlesh Nagarkoti

2. Sandeep Warrier

3. Ishan Porel
