Gujarat Titans comeup with heart winning gesture amid IPL 2025

In a spirited display of solidarity, the Gujarat Titans will wear lavender jerseys in their IPL 2025 encounter against the Lucknow Super Giants at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday, May 22. The gesture is a testament to awareness about cancer and the need to detect it early.

This is the third year running that the Ahmedabad-based team has worn the lavender kit for the cancer cause. The Titans, who are famous for determination on the field, are now utilizing their platform to draw attention to a vital health concern off the field. By moving away from their usual colour, the franchise is making a much bigger statement outside of cricket.

As sportsmen, we are aware of the platform that we have to bring change," commented GT captain Shubman Gill. Sporting these lavender jerseys is our gesture of solidarity with cancer warriors and paying tribute to their strength. We feel that through awareness and education, we can empower people to manage their health and create a future where cancer is no longer an invincible enemy.

Strength isn't just in the game, it's for standing in for a cause 🙌

Colonel Arvinder Singh, Chief Operating Officer of the franchise, emphasized the significance of the campaign. “This is the third consecutive year Gujarat Titans are batting for the cause of cancer awareness. We’re glad to have our fans by our side who have shown consistent support in echoing the message for early diagnosis and pre-emptive care. On May 22, Ahmedabad will echo the message of solidarity from thousands of spectators in the fight against cancer.”

Now leading at the top of the IPL 2025 table with 18 points and a playoffs spot already guaranteed, the Gujarat Titans are not only dominating cricket but also compassion. With only two league matches to go, they continue to capture hearts both on and off the pitch.
