The Gujarat Titans (GT) have sparked excitement among fans with a mysterious post suggesting a possible change in captain for IPL 2025. The team shared a picture of Rashid Khan looking at a blank slate with the caption, “A Clean Slate. A New Story.” This has led to speculation that Rashid could take over as captain.
Shubman Gill, the current captain, had a tough season in 2024. After taking over from Hardik Pandya, who moved to the Mumbai Indians, Gill’s team struggled, finishing eighth with just five wins from 14 matches. While Gill shone with the bat, questions about his leadership grew after a disappointing season.

Rashid Khan: A Strong Contender
Rashid Khan has been a key player for Gujarat Titans since 2022. Retained for INR 18 crore, the Afghan spinner has proven himself as a leader, having captained Afghanistan in T20s, ODIs, and Tests. He also stepped in as GT captain twice in the IPL, winning one match.
Fans believe Rashid’s experience and calm attitude make him the perfect choice to lead GT. Meanwhile, Shubman Gill’s recent struggles, including losing his spot in India’s playing XI during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, have added to the speculation.
The Gujarat Titans have not made any official announcement yet, but their post suggests big changes are coming. Whether Rashid Khan becomes the new captain or not, fans are eager to see what’s next for the team in IPL 2025.
