Monday’s match between Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans was thrilling till the last ball and you can’t deny that. Several moments from the match went viral, including a video of a CSK fan bursting into tears at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad just moments before the team lifted the IPL trophy for the fifth time.
In the video, the girl wearing Chennai team’s jersey could be seen crying with hands over her mouth, perhaps in anticipation of the worst.
CSK were chasing a revised total of 171 in 15 overs after rain interrupted their chase as early as the first over on Reserve Day of IPL 2023 final. Gujarat Titans posted a record total of 214 for 4 in 20 overs but CSK held the nerves to clinch the record-equaling 5th title.
Here’s a video of her breaking down in tears just a few moments before CSK lifted the trophy:
