IPL 2023 comes full circle:

Meanwhile, the IPL 2023 has come full circle as Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans faced one another in the opening match of the season as well. The Titans won the home fixture by five wickets, chasing down 180 relatively comfortably.

However, the Super Kings, who have won the title four times, will take confidence from beating the defending champions in Qualifier 1 at the Chepauk. All eyes will be on Gujarat Titans opener Shubman Gill, who overtook Faf du Plessis as the leading run-getter of IPL 2023. He has the Orange Cap currently with 851 runs in 16 matches. Equally, MS Dhoni is also on the spotlight as his IPL future is a massive point of speculation.
