Mumbai Indians have clinched the IPL trophy for the fabulous record-extending fifth time by beating the Delhi Capitals in the final match of IPL 2020.

Chasing 157 runs, Mumbai kicked-off well and after early loss of de Kock, Rohit (68 off 51) powered with Ishan Kishan (33 runs) to put Mumbai on winning path. Later, MI wrapped up the things with 8 balls remaining. For giving early dents to Delhi by taking three wickets, Boult was declared as the 'man of the final'. Looting up all, MI even secured the 'fairplay' award. At the concluding ceremony, Delhi's Kagiso Rabada was given 'Purple Cap' while Punjab's KL Rahul secured 'Orange Cap'.
