Ahmedabad’s IPL Franchise to be Called Gujarat Titans

Titans have also named their coaching staff comprising Ashish Nehra (head coach), Gary Kirsten (mentor and batting coach) and Vikram Solanki (director of cricket). The trio has worked together for Royal Challengers Bangalore previously.

Titans' home stadium will be the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, the world's largest cricket stadium.

"We want this group to achieve great things for Gujarat and its many passionate fans, which is why we have chosen the name Titans," Siddharth Patel, a partner at CVC, said.
