Earlier on Thursday, Gaikwad, who made his debut with CSK in 2020, was announced as the new CSK skipper by the legendary Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who stepped down from the post.
Under his leadership, Chennai Super Kings won the IPL trophy 5 times – 2010, 2011, 2018, 2021, and 2023.
Pitch and Weather Report
Chasing has been difficult at Chepauk, as the pitch tends to slow down during the second half. So batting first would be a good decision at the MA Chidambaram stadium.
Also, it is expected to be a clear sky with no chance of rain.
