IPL 2023: GT vs CSK, Match Preview:: David Miller from GT and Maheesh Theekshana from CSK have not yet arrived due to their international commitments, and will be unable to participate in this match.
The highly anticipated 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is finally set to kick off on March 31 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The opening game will see defending champions Gujarat Titans take on four-time champions Chennai Super Kings, with MS Dhoni making a comeback to lead the latter team. Meanwhile, Hardik Pandya will be eager to replicate his heroics from last year.
However, both teams are facing challenges with the unavailability of some players. David Miller of the Titans is still in South Africa and will only arrive on April 2 after playing two ODIs against the Netherlands. On the other hand, CSK will miss two Sri Lankan players, Maheesh Theekshana and Matheesha Pathirana, who are currently in New Zealand for the ongoing limited-overs series.
Despite these setbacks, both teams will be looking to start the season on a high note, especially after their contrasting performances in the previous edition.
