Sri Lanka's T20I captain gears up for his maiden IPL stint.
In his debut game for Titans, Williamson landed awkwardly - with his right knee buckling under his weight - while attempting a catch at the deep square leg boundary in the 13th over of CSK's innings. They began their title defence with a victory in their opening game against CSK. Despite receiving treatment for some time, he played no further part in the game. This will be his first stint in the IPL.

"It is sad to lose Kane to injury so early in the tournament. And while it landed on the ground and then rolled towards the boundary rope for a four, Williamson was seen clutching his knee in pain. In his debut appearance for Gujarat Titans, Williamson had landed awkwardly in his knee while attempting to take a catch at the deep square leg boundary during Chennai Super Kings' innings. Considered a fine asset in T20s, it was surprising when Shanaka had gone unsold at the IPL auction in December last year.

Shanaka was on fire in the recent T20I series in India, smashing 124 runs in three innings at a S/R of 187 while averaging 62.00. Shanaka also has a lot of captaincy experience. Williamson suffered an on-field injury to his right leg while attempting a catch at the boundary in the tournament opener against Chennai Super Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium on 31st March 2023.
Gujarat Titans (GT) have announced the appointment of Dasun Shanaka as a replacement for Kane Williamson in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023.
The Gujarat Titans have not yet announced a replacement for Williamson, but the team is expected to make an announcement in due course. GT had bought Williamson for INR 2 crore in the IPL 2023 auction last year. Williamson had attempted to stop the ball from going over the boundary for a six during the match. Despite Williamson's absence, Gujarat Titans secured a 5-wicket victory in their IPL campaign opener. He had a stellar performance in the recent T20I series in India, scoring 124 runs in three innings at a strike rate of 187 and an average of 62.00. Williamson, who suffered an injury to his right leg while attempting a catch during the opening match against Chennai Super Kings on March 31, will now head back to New Zealand for further assessment.
