Defending Champions or Former Champions..!?

The current year's IPL series, which has been going on for more than 50 days without any dearth of excitement, is coming to an end today. After 70 league matches and 3 play-off round matches, the final is taking place today. Dhoni-led chennai Super Kings and hardik Pandya-led gujarat Titans will clash in this. The match will be played at the narendra modi Stadium in ahmedabad and will start at 7.30 pm. Fans can watch it live on the Star sports TV channel and jio Cinema app.

Strengths and weakness of the chennai team:


The fans consider captain dhoni as the total strength of the chennai team. Conway, Rudharaj Gaekwad, all-rounder shivam Dubey, and Rahane are promising in the batting under his leadership. In terms of bowling, Chahar will bowl well with the new ball and Pathirana will give hope in the final phase. Jadeja shines in controlling the runs and taking wickets in the middle overs, supported by Deekshana, who is bowling well. Despite losing the first 3 matches against the gujarat team, chennai won the first qualifier match. It is with that inspiration that the chennai team is entering today's match.
Gujarat Team Strength, and Weakness:

The strength of defending champions gujarat is their bowling and batting combination. Especially in batting, Shubman Gill continues to play Rudratandavam. Supporting him are Vijay Shankar, Sai Sudarshan, hardik pandya, David Miller, and Divetia who are in impressive form. All-rounder Rashid Khan has the power to change the course of the game both with batting and bowling. In the fast bowlers, shami and mohit sharma have been chasing wickets throughout the series.

Besides, the fact that today's match is being played at a local ground is seen as an added strength for the gujarat team.
