Ahmedabad, May 30 (Ians) Chennai Super Kings players were ecstatic after they defeated Gujarat Titans by five wickets via the Dls method in a rain-interrupted final and opener Ruturaj Gaikwad dedicated the victory to teammate Ambati Rayudu, who will be retiring after this season.
In a final stretched over three days, Chennai were set a revised target of 171 in 15 overs when the rain had stopped play a few balls into their innings after the Gujarat Titans had rode on a quickfire 96 by Sai Sudharsan and a half-century by Wriddhiman Saha to post 214/4 in 20 overs.
Ruturaj Giakwad said winning Ipl 2023 in the final spread over three days and lasting just 35 overs was special considering that Csk had finished ninth among 10 teams last season.
“This one was special, because of how it went last year for us. To come back in style, win away games, win in Chepauk, and the finish was unbelievable.

Ipl 2023 Final: In battle between Mentor Dhoni and protege Hardik, Csk face Gujarat Titans (preview)
Ahmedabad, May 27 (Ians) In a battle between mentor Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his protege Hardik Pandya, the four times champions Chennai Super Kings (Csk) will lock horns with defending champions Gujarat Titans in the all-important final of the Indian Premier League (Ipl) 2023 at Narendra Modi Stadium, here on Sunday.
Interestingly both these sides — Csk and Gt — had kicked off the season at the same venue, so Ipl 2023 has come full circle.
The Titans had beaten Csk in the opening game. However, earlier this week, Csk levelled the score with a comprehensive win in Qualifier 1 in Chennai. And now, it’s time for the final showdown between the two teams, which are built around the same philosophy.
If one observes closely, both these teams keep things simple, back their players, and create a relaxed team environment. Even Hardik Pandya has praised the Csk team environment recently but on the field, he will look to trump Dhoni.

On Saturday, in a must-win clash against Delhi Capitals to seal their Playoffs spot, Conway was pristine in his strokeplay during his 52-ball innings of 87, hitting 11 fours and three sixes while sharing a massive 141-run opening partnership to propel Chennai in reaching a gigantic 223/3 and set the base for a 77-run victory at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
Conway is also the third-highest run-scorer of the competition with 585 runs in 14 innings, averaging 53.18.
"He compares highly (as compared to other previous Csk overseas openers). He’s started well and was always in plans to bat through, with Stokes and Moeen in the middle batting and bowling. But Conway’s been a constant, not only for us at the Ipl but also in every international series and format he’s played; his numbers are really high."

Dube’s unbeaten 48 off 34 balls, which included one four and three sixes, helped Chennai get some valuable runs on a challenging pitch. For Kolkata, Sunil Narine and local boy Varun Chakaravarthy bowled well to take two wickets each to keep Chennai to their lowest total of Ipl 2023.
Electing to bat first, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway looked at ease in driving, cutting, and flicking off fast bowlers Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana to pick three fours in the first three overs.
After Gaikwad swept Chakaravarthy for four, the leg-spinner bounced back when he found a turn on leg-break which the right-handed batter tried to slog and top-edge flew to short third man.

In reply, Delhi got off to a dismal start as they lost their openers in the Powerplay. Then, Riley Rossouw and Pandey steadied the ship and built a 59-run stand.

Opting to bat first, Csk lost the in-form opener Devon Conway early in the Powerplay. It was Axar Patel who got the big fish for lbw. Conway went for the slog sweep but missed it completely and ended up losing his wicket.

Lucknow, Oct 6 (Ians) Sanju Samson displayed valiant effort in his unbeaten knock of 86 while Shreyas Iyer hit a counterattacking fifty and Shardul Thakur produced a stunning late cameo. But the trio’s splendid efforts went in vain as India lost to South Africa by nine runs in Odi series opener at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Thursday.
