Big Blow for Gujarat Titans; Key Overseas Star Could miss IPL 2025 Playoffs

GT are in a strong position to secure a playoffs spot

The Gujarat Titans (GT) are in a strong position to secure a playoffs spot in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2025). However, they could be without the services of a key overseas star as they head into the business end of the tournament.

GT’s big-hitting all-rounder Sherfane Rutherford could be a big name missing from the roster. This is because he was named in the West Indies squad set to tour England and Ireland, set to start later in May.

Specifically, the Ireland ODIs is slated to begin from May 21 where whereas the IPL 2025 playoffs kickstart from May 20 with the final scheduled for May 25. After the Ireland ODIs, the Windies team will travel to England for three more ODIs between May 29 and June 3, beginning at Edgbaston.
