Chennai Super Kings has reached the final (PC:iplt20)
New Delhi. MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings, who were shamefully eliminated from the league stage last year, have reached the finals of IPL 2023. Dhoni once again showed how adept he is in making a comeback. Even though last season she was second from bottom, but that was last year’s thing and this is this year’s thing. Last season’s champion Gujarat Titans were defeated by Chennai by 15 runs in the first qualifier.
With this, Chennai has made it to the finals for the 10th time. Not only this, Chennai has also defeated Hardik Pandya’s Gujarat for the first time in IPL. Chennai had qualified for the playoffs by being second in the points table, while Pandya’s Gujarat had entered the playoffs by being on top, but Dhoni dominated the qualifiers.
Grand openning
After losing the toss, Chennai came out to bat first and scored 172 runs for 7 wickets in 20 overs. Rituraj Gaikwad scored the highest 60 runs in 44 balls. At the same time, Devon Conway scored 40 runs in 34 balls. Gaikwad and Conway together got Chennai off to a great start. There was an 87-run partnership between the two, but in 10.3 overs, Mohit Sharma broke the partnership by dismissing Gaikwad. After this, the pace of Chennai also slowed down. Ajinkya Rahane and Ambati Rayudu both scored 17-17 runs and Ravindra Jadeja scored 22 runs in 16 balls. After this, the Chennai bowlers did wonders.
