CSK need 171 to win against GT in IPL 2023 final
After a couple of hours of rain delay, CSK have been set a target of 171 in 15 overs to win the IPL 2023 final. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway will resume the Super Kings’ chase after they were forced to leave the field with scores reading 4/0 after 0.3 overs.
As per revised playing conditions, there will be four overs of powerplay and a bowler can bowl a maximum of three overs.
In case there is another rain interruption, at least five overs of CSK’s innings are required to decide the game on the basis of the DLS method. Otherwise, the result could be decided on the basis of Super Over.
If there is a complete washout, GT will lift the trophy for being table-toppers. They won 10 out of their 14 group-stage games, finishing with 20 points ahead of the playoffs.
