ben stokes playing 11 chennai super kings ipl 2023 final

Ahmedabad: Chennai Super Kings will have to work hard if they want to win their 5th IPL title against Gujarat Titans (CSK vs GT). In their last match, Chennai had defeated Gujarat but the conditions are different here. That match was at home to Chennai, this is at Gujarat’s home ground. If there was a slow pitch then it will be a fast pitch here. In such a situation, there will be a big challenge for Mahendra Singh Dhoni (MS Dhoni) to win the 5th title.

Can Dhoni turn the game around?

Mahendra Singh Dhoni can do something in this match, which is probably not even expected by Gujarat. Ben Stokes may enter the playing XI of Chennai Super Kings in the final. Stokes can be included in the playing XI in place of Moin Ali. Moin could not do any great feat in the last 10 matches. In bowling too, he has only 3 wickets to his name. The Ahmedabad pitch also will not help spin much. Stokes was out for some time due to injury but after that he is on the bench due to team combination.

Stokes is a player of big matches

Ben Stokes is a big match player. In the 2019 ODI World Cup, he made England the champion on the basis of his innings. He also played an unbeaten half-century in the final of the 2021 T20 World Cup. He was also the player of the match in both the finals. In such a situation, if Dhoni includes him in the team, Gujarat will have a player in front of him who knows how to win big matches.
