The new IPL franchise, Ahmedabad, has yet to announce its team and logo. However, there were some reports and news on social media circulating that the Ahmedabad franchise had named the team the "Ahmedabad Titans". Whether it is true or not, the franchise has to make an official announcement.
Due to CVC's ownership of a European betting firm, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the IPL Governing Council delayed the procedure. However, the issues were cleared last month and it was confirmed to become one of the new IPL teams.
Ahmedabad has already secured three players ahead of the IPL 2022 Mega Auction this weekend. Hardik Pandya (15 crores) will captain the side, which also includes Afghan leg-spinner Rashid Khan (15 crores) and opener Shubman Gill (8 crores). It still has a 52-crore auction purse.
