IPL 2023 final
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) won their fifth Indian Premier League (IPL) title, matching Mumbai Indians' record. They won by five wickets against the Gujarat Titans (GT) against a backdrop of pyrotechnics and joyous celebrations. CSK’s captain, Dhoni, received the IPL trophy and subsequently handed it over to Rayudu and Jadeja. The Gujarat Titans scored 214 for four after electing to bat first, with B Sai Sudharsan scoring 96 runs off 47 balls. However, due to the rain interruption, CSK’s target was adjusted to 171 runs to be chased in 15 overs.
Due to heavy rainfall, the final match scheduled for Sunday was postponed to the reserve day, which was Monday. Ultimately, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) emerged victorious over the defending champions, utilizing the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern Method. In a thrilling encounter at a packed Narendra Modi Stadium, CSK successfully completed their task on the final ball. This match holds significance as it potentially marks the last appearance of the legendary Mahendra Singh Dhoni in the T20 league.
