Much to the dismay of fans and players, the final of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 was on Sunday moved to the reserved day after relentless rains delayed the toss and subsequently did not allow the start of the summit showdown.

Heavy spells of rain throughout the evening delayed the toss and subsequently the start of the summit clash. In a big blow to a packed Ahmedabad crowd, the eventual announcement was made implying that the final showdown for the elusive IPL trophy between defending champions Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium on the reserve day.
