Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Friday won their fourth IPL title, outwitting Kolkata Knight Riders by 27 runs in Dubai International Stadium.
MS Dhoni became only the second skipper after Rohit Sharma to lead a side to more than three IPL titles. It was the fourth title for the MS Dhoni-led side, having won it in 2010, 2011, and 2018.
Chasing 193, KKR got off after an impressive partnership between Shubham Gill and Venkatesh Iyer, going down from 91-1 to 123-7.
While Gill and Iyer both scored a half-century each, none of the other KKR players got going as they fell for less than 17 runs between them. Both were dismissed by Deepak Chahar and Shardul Thakur respectively.
For unversed, CSK beat Delhi Capitals to make it to the finals, while Kolkata Knight Riders have beaten Royal Challengers Bangalore and the Delhi Capitals to seal their seat.
