IPL 2023 final: Chennai Super Kings to chase revised target of 171 in 15 overs
Final between Gujarat Titans and Super Kings to begin at 10.40pm UAE
Ahmedabad, India: Finally, it's good news for cricket fans as final between Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans will resume at 12.10 (10.40pm UAE) and it will be a 15-over game. Rain halted play in Ahmedabad for the second day running on Monday with Chennai Super Kings chasing 215 for victory against defending champions Gujarat Titans. However, the revised target according to Duckworth-Lewis System is 171 in 15 overs.
Chennai reached four no loss after three balls by Gujarat pace spearhead Mohammed Shami when rain forced the players off the ground on a reserve day after a heavy downpour washed out play on Sunday.
The final is believed to be Chennai skipper MS Dhoni's last match as thousands of fans have returned to the world's biggest cricket stadium wearing the yellow jersey of the superstar.
Gujarat batsman Sai Sudharsan smashed 96 to power his team to 214-4 - the highest total in an IPL final - after being invited to bat first.
