IPL 2023 Final: MS Dhoni gets out on golden duck in IPL 2023, crowd left stunned

In what could be his last IPL match as a player, Chennai Super Kings captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni got out for a golden duck. Coming down to bat in the 13th over of CSK's innings, Dhoni got dismissed for a 1-ball duck. Note, CSK's innings had been reduced to 15 overs and their target was set at 171 runs due to rain interruption. Dhoni came down to bat after Mohit Sharma removed Ambati Rayudu for 19 off 8 balls. 

Despite Dhoni's dismissal, CSK managed to win the game and become only the second side to win the IPL trophy for a record five times. Ravindra Jadeja finished the game with a six and a four when CSK needed 10 off the last two balls. Dhoni can now proudly hang up his boots and go into retirement as he has officially made CSK the most-successful side in IPL. Mumbai Indians also have five titles to their name but they have not played as many finals as CSK.
