Gujarat Titans surprised everyone by winning the IPL title on their debut season in 2022 and it was mainly due to the brilliance of skipper\u00a0Hardik Pandya<\/a>. The debutants played delightful cricket with Mohammed Shami, Rashid Khan,\u00a0David Miller<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Rahul Tewatia<\/a>\u00a0emerging as the megastars.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, it was a forgettable season for the four-time champions CSK who finished the tournament in ninth spot.\u00a0Ravindra Jadeja<\/a>\u00a0failed to shine as the skipper and with the all-rounder leaving his position midway, it was once again\u00a0MS Dhoni<\/a>\u00a0who assumed the responsibility. However, it was too little too late as the side managed to finish just above Mumbai Indians in a disappointing season.<\/p>\n
Dhoni will once again be the skipper for the franchise with reports claiming that he can retire after IPL 2023. The opening ceremony is expected to begin at 6 pm ahead of the encounter.<\/p>\n
