Chennai: The first qualifier match of Indian Premier League 2023 is between Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans. This season, the teams of Gujarat and CSK are facing each other for the second time. In the first encounter, the Gujarat team was heavy on CSK. In such a situation, CSK will try to avenge the defeat from Gujarat in their home and get the ticket for the final. However, this victory is also necessary for CSK because it has not been able to beat Gujarat in the IPL so far. In such a situation, Gujarat will have to be careful in Dhoni’s house. Although even if a team loses in the first qualifier match, it will get a second chance but neither CSK nor Gujarat would want it to go for the second qualifier. Both will try to secure their place in the final by winning the first qualifier itself. However, before that let’s know how the pitch will be and what is the weather condition for this match to be played at Chepauk first.
