IPL 2023 final on the scheduled day was affected by rain, leading to its postponement to the reserve day, which is scheduled for Monday, May 29. Despite a wait of over three hours by the players, support staff, and umpires, the rain persisted, compelling CSK vs GT final to be rescheduled. Spectators present at the stadium were instructed to keep their physical tickets as the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) anticipates a complete 20-over game to be played on the following day. It is worth noting that even today, the heavy rainfall was unexpected and resulted in the cancellation of the match.
CSK vs GT Weather Report
The weather forecast for the match time on the reserve day doesn’t predict rain, although there is a concern about potential downpours in the afternoon. The current weather conditions indicate that a game will be played today.
Winning the toss will be crucial, as bowling first would be advantageous in these circumstances. Since the entire ground was not covered, the outfield is expected to be exceptionally fast, providing an opportunity for batsmen to capitalize on it.
Who will win IPL 2023 if Reserve Day gets washed out?
The crucial question now arises: what will happen if the reserve day is also affected by rain? In such a scenario, the Gujarat Titans would be declared the champions. Led by Hardik Pandya, the team finished at the top of the points table, securing the title if the match is called off on May 29. The defending champions emerged victorious in ten out of their 14 matches in the season, securing the top position, while the Chennai Super Kings finished second, trailing the leaders by three points.
Consequently, Gujarat Titans will lift the title for the second consecutive year due to their superior performance in the points table, making Hardik Pandya the third captain in the tournament’s history to achieve this feat. MS Dhoni accomplished it in 2010 and 2011, while Rohit Sharma did it in 2019 and 2020.
