CSK, Mumbai Indians
IPL 2023 is the 14th season of Chennai Super Kings and for the 10th time in that the team has confirmed the final ticket. The team which finished 9th last season has become the first team to get ticket for the final this time. CSK has qualified for the final for a record 10th time and each time MS Dhoni has been the captain of the team. On Tuesday, CSK beat Gujarat Titans by 15 runs to seal the final ticket. This is the 16th season of IPL but due to the ban for two seasons in 2016 and 2017, this team has played only 14 seasons. MS Dhoni’s record in the playoffs as captain has also been excellent. He has captained in 25 matches so far and the team has won 16 and lost nine.
CSK has made it to the finals for the 10th time, but if we talk about the top teams, how many times have they reached the finals, then the most successful team of the tournament and five-time champions Mumbai Indians have made it to the finals 6 times. The special thing is that out of those 6, the team has faced defeat only once. Mumbai has won all the five titles under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. So far, his record in the playoffs as captain is excellent and the team has won 13 out of 15 matches. On Wednesday, Mumbai Indians will face Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator.
