Matheesha Pathirana to Mohammad Shami
OUT! TAKEN! Gujarat have been bowled out on the last ball! Pathirana bowls it slower and shorter as well, on off and middle, Mohammad Shami backs away and looks to go down the ground. Does not get a proper connection and skies this one high in the air towards mid on. Deepak Chahar from mid off backtracks and keeps his eyes on the ball all the way through. Completes a well-judged catch and does start to limp after completing the catch. The Chennai fans go berserk as their side makes it to its 10th Indian T20 League final. Chennai win by 15 runs!

Matheesha Pathirana to Rashid Khan
A loud shout for LBW but turned down! Searing yorker on leg, Rashid Khan clears his front leg to swat this one but gets beaten for pace. The ball catches him on the back leg and Chennai go up in unison. The ball rolls towards square leg for a leg bye. The umpire is unmoved and MS Dhoni goes for the review. The UltraEdge shows no bat but the impact is outside leg on Ball Tracking. The on-field decision will stand.

Deepak Chahar to Wriddhiman Saha
OUT! CAUGHT! Picks the man out perfectly! Another short ball from Deepak Chahar, over middle and begging to be hit. Wriddhiman Saha pulls it away but doesn't get any elevation and the ball travels toward deep square leg where Matheesha Pathirana doesn't have to move an inch and takes a simple catch. Chahar does get the breakthrough after conceding a couple of boundaries.

Gets a hand to it! Full and straight, Shubman Gill uses his wrists and flicks it a bit uppishly wide of mid on. Deepak Chahar dives full stretch to his right and manages to get a hand on it. A really tough chance goes down and the batters get a single.

Strategic break! Chennai seem to have the upper hand at the moment and have done well to pick up a couple of wickets. There seems to be now dew and the ball is certainly gripping, allowing the Chennai spinners to weave their magic. Gujarat do have an in-form Shubman Gill at the crease and will be hoping that he plays yet another big knock but he will need support from the other end as well.

A slight delay in the proceedings as Matheesha Pathirana who is to be handed the ball now, was off the field for a bit. The umpires are discussing with MS Dhoni that Pathirana needs to be back on the field for the amount of time he was off the field before he can bowl again. Chennai simply wait out the time and Pathirana is eligible to bowl.

Strategic break! Right then, 58 needed off 24 balls and currently, Chennai have one foot in the final. The middle overs proved to be fruitful and at the expense of a couple of key bowlers bowling out, Chennai have been able to pick up wickets. Gujarat have not been at it so far with the bat but do have a couple of power hitters at the crease. It is a tough ask but with mostly the seam bowlers to operate in the death overs, Gujarat aren't out of it yet. Can the reigning champions pull off a heist here? Let's find out. With that said, Tushar Deshpande (2-0-16-0) is back on.

That is it from Qualifier 1 but there's still plenty of action left in the 2023 Indian T20 League. Next up is the Eliminator between Mumbai and Lucknow at this very stadium and that game will take place on Wednesday, the 24th of May. That game will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT) with the winner facing Gujarat in Qualifier 2 and the loser getting knocked out of the competition. The build-up for that game though will begin a lot earlier. Do join us then, take care and goodbye!
