MK Stalin has previously attended multiple CSK matches held at Chepauk Stadium in Chennai. He has also been seen sporting CSK jersey at the stadium. 

Tamil Nadu Sports Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin also congratulated the 'Yellove' team. Udhayanidhi said, "My hearty congratulations to team @ChennaiIPL for winning the IPL Cup for the fifth time. The outstanding captaincy of @msdhoni and the stunning finish by @imjadeja made #CSK register its epic performance once again in the #IPL2023Final.#Yellove."

This is the fifth IPL win for CSK in 14 seasons. In one of the longest finale matches, CSK defeated Gujarat Titans by five wickets. The game was a thriller until Ravindra Jadeja hit a four in the last ball which sealed the historic win of Chennai. 

The Lions played for 15 overs since the heavy rains played a spoiled sport. The Chennai got a revised target of 171 in 15 overs; 4 overs of powerplay and a maximum of 3 overs per bowler.
