IPL 2026: Best overseas 4 for GT

The Gujarat Titans (GT) had a good season last time around where they finished third in the standings, only to lose to Mumbai Indians in the playoffs.

The team from Ahmedabad have a squad filled with exciting Indian talent along with some outstanding overseas players who are some of the legends in T20 cricket. A perfect harmony between those two allows a team to do well in the Indian Premier League (IPL), something GT managed to do last time around.

GT fans have some great overseas players to watch out for as the side embarks on their fifth season in the IPL.

Glenn Phillips has been part of the Gujarat Titans (GT) since 2025 where he was picked up in the mega auction for INR 2 crore. The New Zealand star, however, did not play a single game for his new side.

Phillips is an all-rounder in every stretch of the imagination. The right-hander is some of the cleanest hitters of a cricket ball whilst batting in the lower-middle order and can bowl some very tidy offbreaks if necessary. The 29-year-old is also one of, if not the best, fielders in the world and is even capable of keeping wickets.

Phillips could be the missing link for GT this year that can lengthen their batting order whilst giving them a sixth bowling option. He is, however, in a battle with West Indies’ Jason Holder for a similar role in this Indian Premier League (IPL) season.
