IPL Toss Update, CSK vs GT: Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni opted to bowl first after winning the toss against Hardik Pandya's Gujarat Titans in IPL 2023 Final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday.
"We'll bowl first with the rain forecast being around," said Dhoni after winning the toss. "Yesterday we were in the dressing room. As a cricketer you always want to play. It was the crowd that suffered the most.
"Hopefully we can entertain them. The pitch has been under cover for a long time, but throughout the tournament the pitch has behaved well over here. Quite happy it will be a 20-over game we'll be playing. Serves justice to the tournament like this. Same team."
Hardik Pandya made no changes to the playing 11 from last game as well while adding that he would have preferred batting as well.
"Would've bowled first as well, but my heart wanted to bat so I don't mind losing the toss. We spoke that it is something out of our control (weather)," said Hardik Pandya.
"Whichever team plays better will have their hands on the trophy. I like keeping the boys cool, and they repay me. It's a flat track (what he makes of the pitch?). Same team."
