Holders Gujarat Titans will take on four-time champions Chennai Super Kings in the opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on Friday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Gujarat pulled off a fairytale title win in their debut season with Hardik Pandya leading the side to victory in front of a record crowd of almost 105,000 fans last year. CSK, on the other hand, had a campaign to forget last time out, finishing ninth in the table with just four wins from a possible 14. GT have managed to retain their core group of players from last season, whilst bolstering their squad with the additions of Kane Williamson, Josh Little and Odean Smith. Meanwhile, England Test captain Ben Stokes' arrival at CSK might boost the MS Dhoni-led side's title hopes this season.

A lot of drama took place last year in the CSK camp as MS Dhoni passed the captaincy baton to Ravindra Jadeja ahead of the season. Midway through IPL 2022, Jadeja relinquished the post only to see Dhoni coming back in the role. The captaincy fiasco added by poor performance of the team saw the four-time champions finish at the second-last spot in the table with only 4 wins from 14 matches.
