Chennai Super Kings beat Gujarat Titans in the final to equal Mumbai Indians’ record of winning five IPL trophies this season. Apart from Chennai’s incredible win, the IPL 2023 season also marked another sensational feat achieved by MS Dhoni. The World Cup-winning captain became the first player in the tournament’s history to play 250 IPL games. The Chennai skipper achieved this wonderful feat during the final match of IPL 2023 against Gujarat. After the final encounter, N Srinivasan sent a heart-warming note to the legendary India skipper.

“Fantastic captain. You have done wonders. Only you can do it. We are proud of the boys and the team. This season has been one where the fans have displayed how much they love MS Dhoni. So do we, N Srinivasan was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.
