We are all set for the game to resume as the umpires make their way out to the middle. The Gujarat players are in a huddle at the boundary line where Hardik Pandya has a few more words to share before taking their respective positions on the field. The remaining ground staff is leaving the field now as Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway stride out to resume their opening partnership. Mohammad Shami has the new ball in his hand to complete his over and is ready to begin proceedings. Let's go...

Strategic break! Chennai have gotten off to an explosive start courtesy of their openers who have their plans pretty clear. They are well ahead of the required rate and their fans will be hoping that this goes on for some more time as they get closer to the target. 99 runs are required in 54 balls and Gujarat desperately need to get some wickets to find a way back into this tie. The four overs from the Afghan spin twins will hold the key for the reigning champions and this game is bound to go down to the wire.

Strategic break! Well then, 38 runs are needed in 18 balls and with a lot of batting to come, one would fancy Chennai to win here. But, it is easier said than done as a couple of wickets can change things quickly. Shivam Dube, with those two maximums in the last over, has given Chennai momentum. Can they now go on and convert it into a win? Or will Gujarat's pacers step up and take them over the line? Let's find out as we are in for a thrilling finale.

Well then, what a crazy, crazy Indian T20 League season we have had! Two teams that faced each other in the very first game of the tournament also went head-to-head in the grand finale as well that too at the same venue. On the opening day, it was Gujarat who cruised to a win but it is Chennai who had the final say with the biggest win of them all. With that, we bid farewell for the time being and hope you've enjoyed our company. There's plenty of more cricketing action around the corner as the World Test Championship Final is only a few days away. Until then, take care and goodbye!
