After winning the IPL, CSK equaled Mumbai Indians’ record for five IPL titles. MS Dhoni who was leading in his 10th IPL final, also drawn level with Rohit Sharma – both men now have five IPL titles as captain. Facing Gujarat Titans for title, CSK were under the pump. However, some decent knocks from Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane, Ambati Rayudu and particularly Ravindra Jadeja helped the Yellow Army to seal the game in their favour off the final ball.
Chennai has one of the most loyal fans in the world as they continue to support their franchise whether in stadiums or social media. Under the leadership of Dhoni, CSK has thrived in the franchise-based league and will look to expand their fan base more in coming years.
