GT squad after IPL 2026 auction: Full list of players purchased by Gujarat Titans with their respective prices
Gujarat Titans purchased Jason Holder for ₹7 crore at the IPL 2026 mini auction, on Tuesday.
The IPL 2026 wasn't exactly a needle-mover for IPL 2022 champions Gujarat Titans, as they made only five purchases, but Jason Holder went away with the most money - ₹7 crore. The second costliest was England's Tom Banton for ₹2 crore. The Titans also acquired Ashok Sharma for ₹90 lakhs.
GT amped up their bidding for Jason Holder, getting the West Indies all-rounder and also purchasing Luke Wood for ₹75 lakh, and Prithviraj Yarra for ₹30 lakh.
GT were in good form last season, but then a late dip in their final three games, including a loss to MI in the Eliminator, raised plenty of question marks. Ahead of the mini auction, GT released Mahipal Lomror, Karim Janat, Gerald Coetzee, Dasun Shanaka, Sherfane Rutherford and Kulwant Khejroliya. GT also traded Sherfane Rutherford to MI.

GT did retain their core, keeping the likes of skipper Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, Anuj Rawat, Washington Sundar, Rahul Tewatia, Mohammed Siraj.
GT entered the mini auction with a purse of ₹12.90 crores. Last season, their campaign was built around the top order consisting of Jos Buttler, Sudharsan and Gill. Their middle order was weak, with Sundar not really clicking, and Shahrukh Khan failed to convince.
