Harmanpreet Kaur collects the trophy from Jay Shah and Roger Binny before her team-mates join her on the podium. The confetti and fireworks go off, cheers all around. The owners and support staff join in and everyone gets into a 'Mumbai, Mumbai' chant.

Harmanpreet Kaur, MI Captain: It was a great experience for all of us, we were waiting for this moment for so many years. I think everybody enjoyed in our dressing room. (On her personal experience) It feels like a dream, I think not only for me but for everyone here, even for the crowd also. So many people were asking us, "when the WPL is going to come?" and today that day is here and I'm so happy and so proud that our team did so well. When you have such a long batting line-up, you just need to go there and express [yourself] and that's what we have been talking [about] in the dressing room. I'm really happy that everybody took the responsibility and they did whatever we discussed. Staying positive was the biggest key for us. The way we started, it was a great day for us. We have been lucky today, lot of full-toss balls, but everything went in our favour. I think that's what you need whenever you go and play. It's a special moment for all of us, and I have been waiting for this moment for a long, long time, and today I can feel what you can feel after the win and I think I should give credit to all the support staff and everyone. It was a great experience for me. Looking for the next year now. We just talk about how positive we were in the dressing room and we just keep talking about how we need to go about. The way we discussed whatever the planning we executed really well and that is the reason we are standing here today.

Meg Lanning, DC Captain collects the runner-up cheque and shield: Difficult pill to swallow, MI deserved the win. Can't fault our efforts though. We hadn't set a target as such, we would have liked to put a few more. This comp has shown that if we keep fighting we could be in the challenge. We thought we could put pressure with early wickets, we did well in the first ten. But Nat Sciver Brunt and Harmanpreet played well. The management and the team have been supportive and I'd love to see the team grow, which it will.

The match referees, umpires, and officials collect their awards.

Meg Lanning wins the orange cap for being the highest run-scorer of the tournament

Hayley Matthews wins the purple cap for being the highest wicket-taker of the tournament

Harmanpreet Kaur's catch at slip to dismiss Devika Vaidya against UP Warriorz gets the catch-of-the-season award

Yastika Bhatia wins the emerging-player-of-the-season award

Natalie Sciver-Brunt (MVP of the season): [On her knock] It was very special. I am glad I was able to stick it out when the pressure was on and to be there at the end was really special. [on her partnership with Harmanpreet and Amelia Kerr]I was finding it quite tough and Harman was sweeping her way to a good total so she took the pressure off me, and Amelia did as well when she came in. I knew if I was there at the end, we'd be able to get over the line. The last three or four overs, we came away a few too many boundaries than we would have liked. That made the game interesting, and it was a winning total in the end. [On winning the title] It means everything. At the start of the competition I didn't really know what to expect and to come together with a very special group of girls at the Mumbai Indians, it is really special to be standing here.

Raj: "Is Hayley Matthews the first opener to win Purple Cap?" In the WPL, she's the only one. Including IPL too, yes.

11:12pm: The presentations will be on in some time. For now, MI's players take a lap around the wicket.

Himanshu Khanna: "Delhi won 2 and lost 1 that is the sequence for entire season"

vivek: "H. Mathews unsold first roundShe is 1st in most wicketsShe is 5th in most runs scorerWhat a player she is"

Akram: "Fun fact : MI don't have any Australian player."

Hypocaust: "Sciver-Brunt scored 132 unbeaten runs across the eliminator and final."

Vinod Rajpal: "Brilliant Scenes on TV...... Women in Blue have done it....Ammchi MUMBAI !"

Charlotte Edwards: Over the moon with the win. To win this is one of my greatest achievements in my career. It's been an unbelievable group, they've stuck together brilliantly and some strong friendships have built, it has been amazing to be around. We gave yesterday off because they were tired. We had a team meeting and we kept it very relaxed. Harman's been amazing as a captain, it's been a wonderful experience.

Jhulan Goswami: All credit to the bowlers, thanks to Lotty (Charlotte), was my first tournament as coach. Girls had a lot of faith and had the belief to do their best. We are all proud of them. Many times, Harman has gone through these situations but she hasn't crossed the finish line. This time, there was good communication and she took charge. The way she handled the team right after the World Cup was great.

Yastika Bhatia: Enormous, can't explain how good it feels. Very happy and proud of the team. We were relaxed yesterday and were focusing on the little things. Think Issy was quick, the full tosses were not low, she was trying to bowl yorkers.

Saika Ishaque: Feels amazing, it's been a dream come true. It was to become champion and is speechless in joy. Didn't make much changes, just wanted to bowl dots if there wasn't wickets. Plan C was to bowl full tosses and wickets (laughs). Thanks to the fans from the heart for all the supprt.

Hayley Matthews: Exciting to be a part of history. We've been through a lot of ups and downs, happy to have won it at the end of the road. This is probably just under the T20 World Cup win for West Indies. Just to bring it home for the Mumbai family means a lot. I guess wickets are wickets. The wicket assisted me, happy to contribute to a team win.

Amelie Kerr: Helps when you're going out and Nat Sciver's there to hit the winning runs. I guess you train for and work hard for those finishing moments. You just want to keep it simple and stick your game plan. Nice when it comes off, it's been an amazing win for an amazing franchise. You just get into a zone but in between the balls you hear the crowd and it's great but you go back into the zone once the ball is bowled. Charlotte is a legend, she's one of the bes got a wealth of knowledge. She's taken teams to finals but to get a team over the line is pleasing to see.

10:44pm: The huddle is still on, the ground is covered in smoke but one thing is clear: MI have another dominant side. Mumbai were ahead from the start of the game, Shikha and Radha pushed Delhi to 131. Mumbai tried to start the chase positively, Radha and Jonassen bowled well and chipped away. But then, Harman and Nat Sciver-Brunt did what Delhi Capitals' batters couldn't do, which was to string a partnership. They had a target to go after which helped, they didn't mind slowing down and taking it deep. Harman got run out and Shikha bowled a tight over which made the equation tense but Kerr and NSB cleared it.

Tautoru: "Glad it was close and hard- but also glad the best team of the WPL won. "

Vishal Pawar : "Another odd year title for MI! This time it's the incredible women! "

Yash: "What a match! Streak intact - Matthews dropped a catch, but MI won. Streak broken - Harmanpreet losing to Meg Lanning."

Last ball?

A long discussion between balls and Capsey loads up

Five off six, two crucial boundaries in the last over put MI well in front. DC need a special over to keep this close. Capsey will bowl the last over

Lucas: "Inches have decided a couple key moments of this match. Catches misses fielders, No balls, each going MI's way. The difference between these 2 teams has been that small this season."

Around

Brilliant over from Shikha, she reacted to the batters moving around the crease and nailed her lengths, changed her pace like a pro. But she has bowled out.

NSB on 48*

23 off 16, the chants of 'Mumbai, Mumbai' continues. Time taken to set the field.

James Cricket: "Only DC could have made a match out of this. Any other team would have lost already."

Shreyas HM: "What is it about Harmanpreet Kaur and run outs?"

Kerr in.
