Revealed: Why Gujarat Titans players are donning lavender jersey in the IPL 2025 clash against Lucknow Super Giants

While GT, who have already qualified for the IPL 2025 playoffs, are currently the table toppers with 18 points and only two league matches remaining, they've chosen to send a powerful message off the field.

Know Why GT players are Wearing Lavender Jerseys

Instead of their usual team colors, the Gujarat Titans are sporting lavender-colored kits in today's match to raise awareness about cancer. Lavender is a color that symbolizes all types of cancer awareness, and by wearing it, the Titans are publicly showing their support for those affected by the disease. This marks the third consecutive year the Gujarat Titans have worn lavender jerseys in a home game as part of this significant initiative. Their goal is to remind fans about the critical importance of early detection and quality treatment for cancer patients.

“Playing with purpose, Playing for a cause 💜... let’s unite in lavender as we support the cause for the fight 🎗,” Gujarat Titans' franchise wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“This is the third consecutive year Gujarat Titans are batting for the cause of cancer awareness. We are glad to have our fans by our side who have shown consistent support in echoing the message for early diagnosis and pre-emptive care for cancer.”

Meanwhile, GT captain Shubman Gill said:

“As athletes, we recognise the platform we have to influence change. Wearing these lavender jerseys is our way of showing solidarity with cancer warriors and honouring their resilience".
