Delhi: The Indian Premier League (IPL) will enter the field for a special purpose in 2025. In the match against Lucknow Super Gynts (LSG) on 22 May, Gujarat’s team will wear lavender color jersey instead of traditional blue jersey. This match will start at 7:30 pm at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

GT initiative for cancer awareness

Lavender color is associated with awareness of all types of cancer. The Gujarat Titans will pay respect to those who have fought this jersey and give a message that timely investigation and strong intention can be helpful in fighting the disease.
