Commentary

And so that is that. The Adelaide Strikers are now the fifth team to taste WBBL glory and as Tahlia McGrath said, the tag of champions has a nice ring to it. It's their moment to savor and they will relish this for a long, long time. It's been an absolute pleasure bringing the coverage of this final, as well as the rest of the WBBL season to you here on Sportskeeda. We thank you so much for joining us all the way through and hope you enjoyed our coverage. Of course, the cricketing world continues to roll out the games so do stay tuned to this platform and catch our coverage of so much more action from around the globe. For the moment though, this is the duo of Pratyush Rohra and Sooryanarayanan Sesha taking your leave. See you around soon - have a great weekend. Toodles!

Tahlia McGrath lifts the trophy and the rest of the Strikers' unit joins her on stage for the celebration. "Champions" is their cry and champions they are indeed. Finally! It was heartbreak for them last season but TMac and her crew have roared back this year with more or less the same unit. They had faith they were going in the right direction and they stuck with it. Now, they have their redemption. Now, they have the trophy. Their party will surely go long into the night before a few of the players, including their captain, shift their focus back to international duty.

There aren't many greater personalities in the world than Ellyse Perry and the way she stayed graceful in defeat is part of the reason we all admire her so much, isn't it? Her side were the standout throughout the group stages of the tournament as they topped the league stages but unfortunately, their one bad outing came when it mattered the most. It's still a massive step in the right direction for them after a campaign to forget last season. If some inspiration to turn things around and redemption of their own is what they need, then they don't have to look beyond the Adelaide Strikers. That's the level of competition in this tournament and that's why it's one of the best cricket leagues in the world.

Tahlia McGrath (Adelaide Strikers captain): That's got a very nice ring to it (champions) and it hasn't sunk in yet. It feels very special. Two crazy weeks to be fair. We didn't know whether we would be finishing 2nd 3rd or 4th. This group is ready for anything - we were that ready and that hungry and we showed that today. Last year hurt. We had a really good season and fell short at the final. We've been building and everytime we got close we fell short. It definitely hurt and we were pretty determined. First of all, thank you to Pez and the Sixers. You guys have been the standout team and have played some amazing cricket. I'm sure you'll be back next year. Thank you to Cricket Australia and the WBBL. The competition keeps getting bigger and better. I love playing it and it's a big part of the calendar. To our sponsors, thank you for supporting us. To everyone at the Strikers, the support staff, you've been brilliant. Our fans coming out - there was a lot of pink today but it was a crazy atmosphere. And wow, what a team. I'm so proud of these guys, I love these guys and this one's going to be pretty special tonight.

Ellyse Perry (Sydney Sixers captain): It's been a wonderful season for us. We've thoroughly enjoyed each other's company. I know it didn't go our way today but I'm proud of the way we played. It's such a thrill to have a wonderful group of people. It's been so nice to play here (in Sydney). We truly thank you so much for your support. We felt that all the way through. To have a crowd like this come for women's cricket is great for us. Firstly, I'd like to say a huge congrats to Tahlia and her team. It is well deserved. They have been knocking on the door for a while. Thank you so much for the WBBL. The quality was outstanding this year and it gets better every year. Thank you for the officials. It's been wonderful to have a full season without covid interruptions. We appreciate all the hard work that goes on behind the scenes. To Motty and our team, I'm sorry it didn't go our way but the way we played and enjoyed each other's company was great to be a part of. I can't thank you all enough for the fun. And in particular to our Bolty (Nicole Bolton). It's been a huge privilege to play alongside you. You bring so much energy and passion on the field. Cricket owes you so much. And lastly, to our friends and family who came out, your support is so important. To know that young girls have the opportunities at their feet to come out and play. I can't wait to see the future of women's sports. Congratulations again to the Strikers.

The World Boss came, saw and conquered. What a performance it was from the West Indian all-rounder!

The match officials are now presented with their mementos. The championship medals are handed out to the Adelaide Strikers, starting with their openers Laura Wolvaardt and Katie Mack. What a partnership they had to set things up front and while the Strikers lost their way, their bowlers stood up to be counted thereafter. Huge roar from her teammates as Madeline Penna walks up to collect her medal. This must feel extra sweet for her!

Deandra Dottin is the Player of the Match for her stellar all-round display. Here's what she has to say: It means a lot to me. It's been a long season for me after retiring from internationals. Came here and we played very well. My first win here in the WBBL finals and it feels special. I knew I had to stay until the end. In the Power Surge, it did not work to plan so we just had to work with what we got. It's always good to get two of their top batters and keep them on the back foot.

What a moment, that winning feeling! 👇
