IPL 2023 Awards Winners: The 16th edition of the Indian Premier League ended with a bang. CSK emerged as the winner after a thrilling final at the Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The final was delayed by a day due to rain and there were chances the winner would be decided with a super over. Thankfully, that scenario didn’t come to pass, and fans got a full game between Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans. Rain threatened to play spoilsport again during the reserve day as well and almost did too.
IPL 2023: CSK beat GT by five Wickets
- GT recorded 214/4 batting first. Sai Sudharsan was the highlight, scoring 96 off 47 balls. However, rain interrupted play when CSK came to bat.
- After more than two hours of delay, the match resumed at 12:10 AM, May 30. The target was reduced to 171 as per the DLS method as rain delayed the match by over two hours.
- Chennai Super Kings looks determined to win from the start itself. Devon Conway and Ruturaj Gaikwad registered a total of 52/0 in the powerplay (4 overs). Noor Ahmad dismissed both Conway and Gaikwad while Mohit Sharma later sent back Ambati Rayudu and MS Dhoni on two consecutive deliveries.
- The game was slipping away from CSK’s grasp when Shivam Dube and Ravindra Jadeja crafted an outstanding comeback. Jadeja hit Sharma for a six and a four when 10 runs were needed off the last two balls, effectively winning the match.
- Chennai Super Kings (171/5) beat Gujarat Titans (214/4) by five wickets.
CSK won the 2023 IPL and lifted their fifth IPL trophy.
