GT vs SRH IPL 2023: Why is Abhinav Manohar Not Playing Today’s IPL Match? Check GT Playing XI

The Gujarat Titans (GT) have dropped Abhinav Manohar for their 13th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) season against the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. It will be really crucial for the Gujarat Titans to make a winning comeback especially after a disappointing 27-run defeat against Mumbai Indians during their most recent encounter of the ongoing T20 tournament. A victory in this match will help the Gujarat Titans qualify for the IPL 2023 playoffs and also secure a top-two finish.

GT vs SRH IPL 2023: Why is Abhinav Manohar Not Playing Today’s IPL Match?

During the toss, it was stated that Abhinav Manohar is not included in the GT playing XI for this GT vs SRH match on Monday. He is not even part of the five substitute members out of which one can be used as an Impact Player at any moment in the game. It is still not known whether the right-handed swashbuckling batsman is fully fit or not. Manohar had contributed with a few impactful performances so far this IPL 2023 season for the Gujarat Titans having scored 114 runs from 9 matches at a strike-rate of close to 140. However, the Gujarat Titans team management have brought back Sai Sudharsan in the middle-order.

“Yeah, it is a special initiative to support cancer patients. We have played really good cricket. The standing in the table doesn’t matter that much, you have to play good cricket. When we started, we knew it would be a tricky year for us. The players have put up their hands in tough situations and put their hands up. It is a fresh wicket, we would have liked to field as well. We have a couple of forced changes. Shankar got hit by a ball in the net yesterday, Sai comes in. Shanka makes his debut and also Yash Dayal is back,” said Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya during the toss.
