Chennai Super Kings won the toss and MS Dhoni was welcomed to a loud cheer as he elected to bowl first.
With dark clouds hovering around, MSD was clear that he wanted to chase the target. He added that the fans have suffered more than the players yesterday and they deserve to witness a full 40-over IPL final.
As expected, CSK are going in with the same squad that played in Qualifier 1 against the same opposition - Gujarat Titans.
