    The 2013 IPL finals was CSK's fifth encounter at this stage and fourth in succession.

    CSK lost wickets regularly and only Dhoni (63) crossed the 20-run mark as they finished at 125/9 and lost by 23 runs.

    For the third time in an IPL final against MI, Dhoni's team fell short. However, this time it was a thriller as CSK missed the bus by a single run.

    MI batted first and could manage 149/8, courtesy of a rescue act by Pollard who smashed a 25-ball 41*

    In response, CSK were restricted at 148/7 due to Jasprit Bumrah's heroics of 2/14.

    2021

    CSK's fourth IPL title came against KKR in 2021

    CSK won their fourth IPL title in 2021 when they defeat Eoin Morgan's KKR in the final in Dubai.
