IPL 2023: Shubman Gill to Mohammed Shami, full list of awards for the season
IPL 2023 is done and in the history books. The 2023 edition of the Indian Premier League concluded in Ahmedabad with the Chennai Super Kings winning their fifth trophy. CSK defeated Gujarat Titans by five wickets to become champions of the league for the fifth time.
In a nail-biting thriller, Ravindra Jadeja kept his nerve and smacked a six and a four when the Chennai Super Kings needed 10 runs off two balls. His big hits sent the entire Narendra Modi Stadium into a frenzy as the Super Kings regained the trophy.
Earlier in the game, Sai Sudharsan's 96-run knock helped GT post 214/4 on the board, but rain forced the organizers to revise the target to 171 in 15 overs.
