The Gujarat Titans, while addressing the situation, issued a small official statement: “Gujarat Titans wish Glenn a quick recovery.”
The injury is a disappointing turn for Philips, who attracted attention to his extraordinary fielding during the New Zealand’s Champions Trophy campaign. His powerful batting abilities made an expectation for his possible impact in this year’s IPL.
Titans have made a strong start in this IPL season. While his top-order batting lineup, Sai Reformson, Captain Shubman Gill and Jose Butler, have given strong performance, the absence of Philips will limit their bench strength options.
Navigating through the tournament connects GT’s growing concerns at the time of exit of Philips. Despite being a capable artist in his ranks, losing two international players within a short time can affect his strategic plans for the remaining IPL 2025.
