IPL 2025: GT to Wear Special Lavender Jersey Against LSG for Cancer Awareness
Gujarat Titans will be sporting a special lavender jersey in their upcoming match against Lucknow Super Giants on May 22 at 7:30 PM. It’s a thoughtful gesture to support a meaningful cause, and the game will be held at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad — the biggest cricket stadium in the world.
Gujarat Titans will wear lavender jerseys as a way to honor everyone who has battled cancer and to raise awareness about the importance of early detection. Lavender stands for all types of cancer, and this simple yet powerful gesture is meant to spread hope and strength. It’s a reminder that true courage isn’t just shown on the field — it’s also about standing up for a cause that matters.
Strength isn't just in the game, it's for standing in for a cause 🙌

“Strength isn't just in the game, it's for standing in for a cause . Join us on 22nd May as our Titans don the lavender jersey to support the fight against cancer!” Gujarat Titans shared in their announcement. With this gesture, the team hopes to spark meaningful conversations about cancer prevention, research and support reminding everyone that raising awareness can be just as powerful as any performance on the field.
For the third season running, Gujarat Titans will don their special lavender kit a tradition that started back in 2023 under Hardik Pandya’s captaincy. They’re not the only side to bring purpose to the pitch. Delhi Capitals were the first to introduce the lavender jersey back in 2015, while Royal Challengers Bengaluru have often taken the field in green to raise awareness for environmental causes. It’s a great example of teams using their time in the spotlight to play for something beyond just runs and wickets.
