IPL (Indian Premier League) 2023 reached its epic conclusion as CSK (Chennai Super Kings) beat Gujarat Titans by 5 wickets to lift their 5th title in the history of tournament. In a rain-affected match, CSK were asked to chase 171 in 15 overs as per DLS method. 

Players like Sai Sudharsan, Devon Conway, Shivam Dube, Noor Ahmed, Mohit Sharma enriched the final with their brilliant performances. However, it was Ravindra Jadeja with the bat in the end, scoring 10 runs off last 2 balls to power CSK to a brilliant win in an enduring final.

CSK Captain MS Dhoni who is not known to celebrate wildly, lifted Jadeja in an epic moment of celebration after the latter hit the winning run. Check out the video here:

Mohit Sharma bowled excellent yorkers and gave just three runs in the first four balls. But Jadeja had other plans and he hit a six and four in the last two balls to give CSK a thrilling win and record fifth title.

With this thrilling win, the M.S. Dhoni-led CSK now have five trophies -- same as Mumbai Indians.

A sensational quick-fire fifty from Sai Sudharsan (96 off 41) along with Wriddhiman Saha's vital half-century (54 off 39) powered Gujarat Titans to 214/4 in 20 overs.

Sudharsan looked flawless throughout his innings and played some breathtaking shots against an undisciplined bowling line-up. Apart from Sudharsan and Saha, the likes of Shubman Gill (39 off 20) and Hardik Pandya (21 off 12) also made vital contributions with the bat.
