If there is one Pro Kabaddi League team that knows the real meaning of “so close yet so far,” it would be Ram Mehar Singh’s Gujarat Giants. The Giants have come close to winning the title on multiple occasions but failed to cross the line every time. But will they be able to break the jinx in PKL 2024? Let’s try to find the answer to that question through the Gujarat Giants’ SWOT analysis for the upcoming season.
Strengths

Gujarat Giants’ biggest strength will be their coach, Ram Mehar Singh, and his immense experience. With a number of highly promising players like Rakesh, Guman, and Prateek in his arsenal, Mehar will be looking to win Gujarat Giants their maiden PKL title in season 11.
Weaknesses
Although the Giants have some hugely promising players in their squad, most of them are either out of form or have very little experience. As the competition progresses, this might become a major issue for the team.
Opportunities
The Giants have numerous young talents who will be hoping to earn a name for themselves among fans, along with some big names who have been out of form for the last few seasons. But with Singh ready to guide them, these players will aim to give their best on the mat and prove why the team management placed their confidence in them.
Threats
During the auctions, Gujarat spent way too much money on out-of-form players, which has put them under a lot of heat with fans. If these players fail to perform, the Giants’ management might find themselves under a lot of pressure throughout the season.
Gujarat Giants full squad
Balaji D, Jitender Yadav, Parteek Dahiya, Rakesh, Nitin, Guman Singh, Sombir, Mohammad Esmaeil Nabibakhsh, Vahid Reza Eimehr, Neeraj Kumar, Monu, Raj D Salunkhe, Himanshu, Himanshu Singh, Aadesh Siwach, Harsh Mahesh Lad, Rohan Singh, Mohit, Manuj, Nitesh
