In the last season of IPL, debutants Gujarat Titans won the tournament, with their skipper Hardik Pandya leading the way. However, the four-time champions Chennai Super Kings had a disappointing season, finishing in ninth place. This year, the team will be led by MS Dhoni, and there are rumors circulating that he may retire after IPL 2023.
