MI-W vs DC-W, WPL 2025 Final: Who Said What

Harmanpreet Kaur | Mumbai Captain

Definitely. It is a great team effort. Congrats to Delhi for the way they played, it was not easy for us. When you win you are really happy, we didn't start well but being there and doing the right things were important. It wasn't easy when I went to bat.

"I had the belief if I could rotate the strike, when Nat is there, I don't need to take too much pressure, she was in great touch and she was doing it for the team. We tried to keep it simple and easy, we took calculated risks and that helped us in the partnership. 150 was not a decent total for DC but pressure games it always looks like 180 and credit goes to our bowlers who gave us breakthroughs in the powerplay.

"Ismail and at the other end Nat and really happy with the way how the team bowled today. We had really good meetings, one to one meetings, we knew we have 4 experienced bowlers and it's a T20 - 4 overs is really important and today Saika was there she bowled those crucial 3 overs, before that Amanjot and in between Sanskriti.

"They knew their roles and I'm really happy and I enjoy playing with them. It means a lot, first season we tried to do everything right, when we met we discussed how things did not go right in the last season, we tried to keep things as simple as possible and as a team we did that. We got great support from the support staff and really happy how we did as a team."

Meg Lanning | Delhi Captain

"We have had another good season but unfortunately we couldn't quite get over the line again tonight. Full credit to Mumbai, congratulations - you have been excellent throughout the whole season and thoroughly deserve your win, so well done. Disappointing for us, we didn't quite get it together with the bat. I thought chasing 150 was a pretty good target for us, one more partnership for a couple of overs might have given us a chance but very proud of the group.

"We put in a good season, had some really good moments but yeah we are all pretty disappointed. (if they had too much rest before the final) I am not sure, some people say Mumbai might be tired, you can't win these days. I don't think there's any right or wrong way to do it, it's about performing well on the night and Mumbai were too good for us tonight.

"We haven't been able to put our best performances on the board in the final which is disappointing but that's cricket. No fault of anyone's, we came in here as prepped as we could be to do as well as we could. It has just not happened for us.

"It has been different each time around. We are bitterly disappointed, we feel like put ourselves into a good position to win but that's the game, you win some, you lose some and unfortunately we have been on the wrong side."

Nat Sciver-Brunt | MVP of the Season

"So pleased. Been a great year for me in the WPL and coming on the back of a lot of cricket and so happy to be standing here as a winner. I will ride the highs whilst I can and there are some lows around the corner as well but that's cricket isn't it.

"We have a great amount of allrounders in our team and some world-class players in our team who can stand up at any point of time. Very lucky to be part of that team. It's so special to be part of a franchise that has become family. It has been pretty amazing and we are really really happy."
