Analysis
The Chennai Super Kings have looked like one of the most complete teams in IPL 2023 which is carried by veteran leadership and youthful exuberance. Their batting has been a breath of fresh air with the likes of Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube in sublime form. Whereas the bowling is gradually improving, giving MS Dhoni a chance to win his fifth title.
Whereas the Punjab Kings, have been one of the surprise teams in IPL 2023 because of their positive free-flowing cricket. In the batting department, despite the absence of Shikhar Dhawan, Punjab’s young brigade has been on fire with someone like Jitesh Sharma, having a season to remember. Whereas with the ball, Arshdeep Singh and Rahul Chahar have formed a formidable duo. Lastly, Sam Curran coming into his own has given the PBKS squad much-needed balance, courtesy of his contributions across departments.
