Gujarat Titans' batsman Sherfane Rutherford feels that the absence of premier batter Jos Buttler will be a significant loss for the team in the IPL 2025 playoffs.

Titans' wicketkeeper-batsman Buttler will depart for England soon to fulfil his national duties, as England will lock horns against the West Indies in a home series starting May 29. Notably, the IPL 2025 playoffs are scheduled to begin on the same day as England’s home series.
