It's the second cup back to back two in a row. So glad. So happy. I mean, the best performance by the team with the bat and the ball. And I think they've been dominating this whole season. And to finally get this through at the end of the year I mean it's unbelievable to be winning it back to back. And so happy for the guys. They put up a great show and I mean the very strong team that we played today. But happy to have the win at the end.
