Chennai Super Kings equalled Mumbai Indians’ record of winning five IPL trophies this season after defeating Gujarat Titans in the summit clash. Apart from Chennai’s incredible victory, the IPL 2023 season also marked another sensational feat achieved by MS Dhoni. The World Cup-winning skipper became the first player ever in the history of the tournament to play 250 IPL games. The Chennai captain achieved this marvellous feat during the IPL 2023 final match against Gujarat. Following the final encounter, N Srinivasan sent a heartwarming note to the legendary India captain.
“Fantastic captain. You have done a miracle. Only you can do it. We are proud of the boys and the team. This season has been one where the fans have demonstrated how much they love M S Dhoni. So do we,” N Srinivasan was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.
