Team news- CSK Vs GT- IPL 2023 Final
Chennai Super Kings
The CSK batting lineup appears to be well organized, with Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane, and Shivam Dube all in good form. Additionally, Jadeja and Dhoni have been contributing effectively in the lower order. However, in the bowling department, both Tushar Deshpande and Chahar have proven to be expensive. CSK would like to tighten up their performance in the middle overs, as they have been leaking runs in that phase. Fortunately, Theekshana and Pathirana have been performing well in this regard. Pathirana, in particular, has maintained an economy rate of less than nine runs per over and will be crucial in that phase of the game against GT
Gujarat Titans
The Gujarat Titans had an outstanding season in IPL 2023, building on their success from 2022 and becoming the first team to secure a spot in the playoffs. Shubman Gill emerged as the star performer for them, consistently scoring runs throughout the season. However, they faced a defeat against the Chennai Super Kings in Qualifier 1 but bounced back strongly by defeating the formidable Mumbai Indians by 62 runs, securing their place in the final.
Shubman Gill currently holds the orange cap, having scored three centuries in this edition. His remarkable innings of 129 in the qualifier 2 has been hailed as one of the greatest IPL innings of all time. Additionally, players like Hardik, Sai Sudarshan, David Miller, and Vijay Shankar are also in good form, contributing significantly.
In the bowling department, Mohammed Shami currently holds the purple cap, showcasing his exceptional performances. Alongside him, Rashid Khan, Mohit Sharma, and Noor Ahmed form a formidable bowling attack for the Gujarat Titans.
