New Delhi. Tomorrow (Sunday) the final match in IPL 2023 was to be played between Chennai and Gujarat, but due to interference of rain, neither the toss could be done nor the spectators waiting for the match got a chance to be happy. After this, it was decided to have the IPL final on Reserve Day on Monday. But today this last trophy battle is going to be very interesting to watch. On one hand experienced captain MS Dhoni and on the other hand Hardik Pandya armed with young enthusiasm, both the teams have more than one strong players. But this year Gujarat has repeated its last year’s performance. That’s why whether Gujarat wins this IPL trophy or not, it will definitely rain more awards.
For information, let us tell you that under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya, Gujarat Titans’ star opener Shubman Gill has reached far ahead in the Orange Cap race by scoring a century on a century. He has already reached the number 1 run-getter in IPL 2023 with 851 runs. Even in today’s match, he is going to hold the bat and is ready to break his own record, if anyone is behind him in this orange cap race, then he is Chennai batsman David Conway, but snatching this orange cap from Shubman Gill is his task. It’s almost impossible. David Conway has 625 runs.

Along with this, Gujarat is also moving ahead with the IPL award Purple Cap for the best bowling. In this, no one can stop Gujarat from taking the Purple Cap because Gujarat’s bowlers are present in all the top three places. In this list, bowler Mohammad Shami, who bowled brilliantly for Gujarat this year, is leading the race with 28 wickets. He has given 493 runs at an economy rate of 7. After him comes the number of Afghanistan all-rounder Rashid Khan who has taken 27 wickets. His economy rate was also 7. Then at number three is Mohit Sharma, who came back with a bang this year, took 24 wickets and gave only 325 at the rate of 7, the economy rate of all three is equal. But it will be very interesting to see who takes the most wickets in the final.
