‘Cause acha hai, but pehle trophy pe dhyaan do tum’ – Fans react to Gujarat Titans set to don a new lavender jersey vs SRH
For their upcoming match on Monday, Hardik Pandya’s Gujarat Titans are prepared to wear a lavender uniform in support of the fight against cancer. On Monday, May 15, the team will square off against Aiden Markram’s Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Ahmedabad’s venerable Narendra Modi Stadium.
The reigning champs posted the wholesome update on their official social media account to show their support for this great initiative. To promote cancer awareness, the Titans’ players will be seen sporting lavender clothing in place of their usual dark blue uniforms. The Gujarat Titans posted on their accounts with the following caption, “We are ready to don the lavender colours this Monday for a special cause. Gujarat Titans care about the health and wellness of one and all! Join us as we strive to raise awareness against cancer.”
GT lose to MI in their last encounter
Speaking of their most recent IPL 2023 game, on May 12, Hardik Pandya and his team were defeated by the five-time champion Mumbai Indians. Mumbai scored a mammoth 218 runs during the first innings, despite spin superstar Rashid Khan taking four wickets, thanks to Suryakumar Yadav’s flurry (103* from 49 balls).
The flashy batter had a blistering strike rate of 210.20 while hitting six home runs and 11 fours. Rashid Khan responded with an aggressive 32-ball 79 that was undefeated and featured up to 10 sixes as well as three fours at a mind-blowing strike rate of 246.87.
Despite the brutal hitting, Mumbai earned the two points as well as moved up to third place with 14 points after 12 games as per the Indian Premier League standings. Gujarat, who has been comfortable atop the standings for a few recent matches, now face tough opposition from teams like CSK and MI. The reigning champions will aim to achieve successful results and secure their spot in Qualifier 1 with two group matches remaining.

When will IPL teams move on from blue colour? Why no teams accept green as their primary colour?
