Gujarat Titans officials question Ashish Nehra over backing Rahul Tewatia and 2 others before IPL Auction

Internal friction has emerged within the Gujarat Titans organization regarding roster strategy ahead of the 2027 IPL auction. Head coach Ashish Nehra is reportedly insisting on retaining Rahul Tewatia, Jayant Yadav, and Shahrukh Khan, despite pushback from franchise officials who question the trio's recent utility and lack of meaningful contributions.

Critics within the camp are concerned that these players have failed to justify their spots, with some noting that Tewatia managed only 190 runs across 15 innings during the 2026 season for a 27.14 average. While Nehra remains a staunch supporter of these veterans, management is weighing whether to move on to newer talent to improve team performance.
