TATA IPL 2023 Qualifier 1, CSK vs GT: Where to Stream Chennai vs Gujarat, Preview, Playing 11, Squads

We are down to the last 4 games in IPL 2023 and it will be the Chennai Super Kings and the Gujarat Titans who will commence this stage of the cash-rich league.

MS Dhoni's CSK take on Hardik Pandya's GT in IPL 2023 Qualifier 1 on Tuesday, with the winner getting a direct ticket to the final.

Defending champions Gujarat are on a roll and finished the league stage on top of the table with 10 wins in 14 games. With just 1 loss in its last 5 games, GT has momentum on its side.

Shubman Gill is in top form and is coming off two consecutive hundreds. Gujarat also beat CSK in the tournament opener in Ahmedabad.

However, Hardik's men have never played a game in Chennai and with qualifier 1 scheduled to take place at the Chepauk, it's advantage CSK.

Conditions suit Dhoni's style of captaincy at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium and it's no less than a fortress for the Yellow Army.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

History favours Gujarat as CSK has never beaten GT and has lost all 3 games between these two sides.

TEAM NEWS

Ben Stokes has flown back home after the league stage of IPL 2023. That won't affect Chennai as they were anyway playing without the English all-rounder.

A fit-again Noor Ahmad is a big boost for GT and he is likely to retain his spot in the XI after making a successful return against RCB.

CHENNAI WEATHER REPORT

It rained in Chennai on Monday but the MET department has predicted no showers on the match day. However, with no cloud cover, dew is expected to play a part, making the toss crucial.
