What will be the playing scenarios if the rain interrupts the CSK vs GT IPL 2023 final yet again?

Hopefully, full game tomorrow. In the unlikely situation that we can't get even a 5 overs a side game, there will be a super over. If even that is not possible, the team that finished higher at the end of the league stage is declared the winner
