GT and DC in discussions over Ashutosh Sharma trade

Gujarat Titans have entered discussions with Delhi Capitals regarding a potential trade for right-hand batter Ashutosh Sharma ahead of the IPL retention deadline. The Shubman Gill-led franchise reportedly targeted Sharma to strengthen their lower-order finishing options. Talks remain active between both franchises ahead of the November 17 cutoff date.

Delhi Capitals acquired Sharma for INR 3.8 crore two years ago, and he recently switched domestic teams to Gujarat. Gujarat Titans may propose exchanging one of their frontline fast bowlers to complete the permanent player trade, while Delhi manages uncertainties surrounding Mitchell Starc's availability for the upcoming season.
