12:00 AM IST, Local Time: As a new day dawns upon us, Jaffna Kings still have a long night of celebrations ahead of them! Congratulations to them on being crowned the LPL Champions for the 4th time! That's it from Lanka Premier League's 5th season! 

Join us back tomorrow as we bring you all the cricketing action LIVE from around the world! Until then, I am Anirudh Modi, signing off along with my co-commentator AkshayaKrishna Polya, and our scorers/analysts Raju Khariya, Zeeshan Naiyer, and Paras Yadav! See you on the next one!
Charith Asalanka collects the LPL Trophy from the honourable minister Harin Fernando and ICC chairman Greg Barclay. Asalanka is struggling to carry the big silverware. Gets some help from Fabian Allen as the West Indies hands it over to the rest of the teammates, who are ready for the celebration standing behind the Champions board. The party begins and will go on for ever!
Charith Asalanka (Jaffna Kings' Captain): "It's amazing that I am lifting the trophy on my first try as a captain. It's all about professional individual performances, I think my players looked after themselves and recovered quickly according to the conditions. 

I am speechless by their batting performance, especially after losing a first ball wicket, they were outstanding. 

Just one thing, I would like to thank our fans for all their support and cheers through the tournament. It would not have been possible without them."
Jaffna Kings' skipper Charith Asalanka walks up to receive the prize money on behalf of his team. The entire team follows him to collect their winners' medals!
Niroshan Dickwella (Galle Marvels Captain): "First of all, it was a great campaign for us over the past 21 days. Really proud of the boys.

After losing the toss, I actually didn't mind batting first. We probably did not read the wicket well. They bowled well initially. Credit goes to Bhanuka Rajapaksa.

With the ball, it was a disaster. There was a 45-minute innings break. With dew settling in during the second innings, the batting became easy.

I want to thank the coaches, franchise owners, support staff, IPG group, and SLC for the great tournament."
The Galle Marvels are presented with their runners-up medals! Niroshan Dickwella receives the prize money on behalf of his team.
Rilee Rossouw (Player of the tournament): "Not much to talk, I just played one ball at a time. Credit to Kusal, he played a great knock as well. 100 percent (on whether his altercation with Bhanuka Rajapaksa ignited a fire in him). People who know me, don't abuse me. It makes it interesting, entertaining. And hopefully, that spurs the rest of the boys on. It just puts me more in the zone and I'm thankful that it came off today.

Winning the tournament is what we came here to do and just working on the winning formula. Records are meant to broken so I guess it will be broken next year."
Player of the Tournament: Rilee Rossouw (389 Runs), 1st player to hit two hundreds in one LPL season and 1st player to score a century in the final.
Emerging Player of the Tournament: Chamindu Wickramasinghe
Highest wicket-taker of the Tournament (Red Cap): Shadab Khan (17 wickets)
Highest run-scorer of the Tournament (Pink Cap): Tim Seifert (400 runs)
The match and tournament officials are being presented with their medal of appreciation.

Highest Partnerships in LPL history for any wicket:

Kusal Mendis and Rilee Rossouw of Jaffna- 185*, TONIGHT*

Shevon Daniel and Jordan Cox of Dambulla- 163, 2022

Pathum Nissanka and Andre Fletcher of Kandy- 156, 2022
Tabraiz Shamsi: "He (Rossouw) is called as Rocket back home. It's not the first time he's done something that good, but he has been amazing. Our entire batting unit has been on fire and they bought their best today. He is someone you need to love and abuse at the right time and ensure he is in the right frame of mind when he walks out to bat. We are lucky to have him and he has proven it again today."
Jason Behrendorff: "Yeah, thank you! I have been trying so hard in the tournament to strike with the new ball. Tonight, I got the rewards. Then how good was that hitting at the back end? Shamsi and I were speaking about who is going to play. He didn't want to play (chuckles). Shamsi and I have been sharing our spots based on the condition. He said you are gonna have a blast.

It's actually unbelievable. My first time here in Sri Lanka. A different culture altogether. I am in love with it and its people. In front of 27,000 (crowd), it was something special. It's my first LPL title, although Jaffna have won four of them."
Fabian Allen: "Yeah, it was a fantastic win. Credit to the group, for the way they played. They put on a good show. I am out of words. It was a remarkable partnership (the 185-run stand between Rilee Rossouw and Kusal Mendis). You know whatever the teams asks me to do, I put my hand up.  Coach always tells me to back our strengths and back ourselves. That's what we did."
