2023 - runners up
All season, Titans looked the best team on show, with Mohammed Shami and Rashid Khan taking bagfuls of wickets and opener Shubman Gill peaking in a blaze of batting form towards the pointy end. But MS Dhoni's CSK crew bested them twice in the final three matches to snatch the title from Titans' grasp.

Key players
Hardik Pandya
Since his IPL debut in 2015, Pandya had only ever played for Mumbai Indians, for whom he made 1476 runs and picked up 42 wickets. Gujarat Titans picked him up for Rs 15 crore (US$ 1.9 million approx) and in his first season for them he made 487 runs at a strike rate over 130 and picked up eight wickets while leading them to the title.He didn't perform all that impressively with bat or ball in 2023, but his gun team ensured his contributions were not missed.

Rashid Khan
In his first season for Titans, he took 19 wickets - the second most for them - apart from scoring crucial runs at a strike rate of over 200 to help finish matches, enhancing his reputation as a multi-utility player. In 2023, he and team-mate Mohammed Shami were neck and neck in the battle for the purple cap for most of the season, before Rashid finished with 27, one fewer than Shami.

David Miller
Miller had his best IPL to date in 2022 and made 481 runs at an average of over 68 and a strike rate of 142.72, bringing his finishing prowess to the fore. He enjoyed the backing of the team and won matches from improbable situations. In 2023 he didn't fare quite so well, but it was a sign of how strong Titans were that they made it to the final nevertheless.
