Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will have a chance to equal Mumbai Indians (MI)'s record of five Indian Premier League (IPL) titles on Sunday.

MS Dhoni's CSK have won four titles so far, with Rohit Sharma's side ahead of them with five IPL crowns. CSK have already booked their place in the final of IPL 2023, where they will take on either MI or defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT).

One of the biggest reasons behind CSK success has been the form of young Sri Lankan pacer Matheesha Pathirana, who has thrived under MS Dhoni's tutelage.

The 20-year-old, who played just two games last season, has picked up 17 wickets in 11 matches at an average of 19.24. Ahead of the final on Sunday, Dhoni met with Pathirana's family in Chennai.

"Thought MS Dhoni Was Desperate": Ex-India Star On CSK Captain's Tactics During IPL 2023 Qualifier 1 vs Gujarat Titans

Former Indian cricket team batter Sanjay Manjrekar felt that Chennai Super Kings skipper MS Dhoni was a bit desperate during his team's Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 playoff match against Gujarat Titans and it was clear from the episode involving Matheesha Pathirana. During the 16th over of the GT innings, the umpire did not allow Pathirana to bowl as he was not eligible for leaving the field. However, Dhoni had a prolonged chat with the umpires and almost four minutes were wasted due to the conversations and the resultant confusion. That allowed the stipulated time to be completed for the young Sri Lankan pacer to bowl the over and many experts believes that it was a deliberate plan from CSK and Dhoni.
