Gujarat Titans, the reigning Indian Premier League (IPL) champions, have signed Dasun Shanaka for the balance of the 2023 campaign. Kane Williamson, a batter from New Zealand, will be replaced by the Sri Lankan all-rounder.
Williamson, who had been acquired for Rs 2 crore prior to the start of the year, suffered a right leg injury while playing for his team against Chennai Super Kings. He was later disqualified from this match, and his participation in the forthcoming ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 is also being seriously questioned.
