The champions of the 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 will be crowned on Sunday, with the summit clash scheduled to take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

The Titans, who are the defending champions, would be hoping to retain the trophy that they won last year. But, standing in front of them is the Super Kings hurdle, a side that has won the trophy 4 times, under the leadership of MS Dhoni.

However, there also remains a little concern over the weather, especially after the way rain came downpouring at the venue on Friday during the Qualifier 2 between Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians.

When the two teams locked horns in the Qualifier 1, Dhoni's men emerged triumphant comfortably. However, the two teams will have another factor to prepare for in the final as they square off again in the summit clash.
