We leave you with a bunch of records that India broke in the summit clash. Have a look!👇
India came into the tournament as favorites and walk away as the champions without dropping a game. Serious signs ahead of a home T20 World Cup where they look primed to defend their title the way they're going. For some of their players, the action resumes in three days' time with the West Indies coming over to India for a two-Test series in Ahmedabad and New Delhi.
We will bring our coverage of that and much more right here on Sportskeeda. For now, it's time to bid adieu after a fascinating game of cricket which we enjoyed bringing to you. Thank you so much for being a part of our coverage. Until next time, it's the duo of Pradeep and Sooryanarayanan calling it a night. See you soon - good night and take care!

Simon Doull, who conducted the presentation, informs that the Indian team will not be collecting their medals tonight and that brings the presentation ceremony to an end.
Raucous cheers as Abhishek Sharma walks away as the Player of the Tournament for his 314 runs. He wins a car as well for the same. Here's what he has to say: Getting a car is always a pleasure. Getting into this team after winning the World Cup wasn't easy for any opener. But we had a plan that we wanted to play our game and show intent from the first ball. That was my plan and I've worked really hard. You need special support from your coach and captain and that was one thing I was getting from them. My plan was clear that if I get that impact innings for my team, my team should win. If you want to play like this you will get failures. But that is the time you have to realize that. Sometimes you are going to fail but you have to follow the process. (Adjusting to different wickets) If you see I had a plan. If I got spinners in the powerplay I was going to use the powerplay. I had a plan that I wanted to go from the first ball. Obviously that's going to make me give that impact for the team.
Kuldeep Yadav wins a sponsor award for the Most Valuable Player of the Tournament for his 17 wickets.
Some premature fireworks in the background!
Salman Agha [Pakistan captain]: "It was a tough pill to swallow. We could've finished with the bat well. Bowling we were good, if we had finished well, things would've been different. We couldn't rotate the strike, we lost too many wickets and that was the difference. We need to sort out our batting. Bowled really well, one time we were on top, but we have to give them the credit and batting is certainly a concern. Very proud, we've played well, proud as a team. Continue to improve, come back stronger. "
A ring of boos as the Pakistan players come up to collect their runner-up medals.
Tilak Varma is the Player of the Match! Here's what he has to say: "It was a bit pressure, I just wanted to stay in the middle and finish the game. They were bowling well with change of pace, wanted to do it for my country. It was fantastic knock by Sanju at that moment. Under pressure Dube helped us build the partnership. We have prepared for every situation, every level. I was prepared to bat at any order. It was on the slower side, I had a discussion with the coach, rotating the strikes, sweep shots helped me. Special feeling, one of the best innings of my life. It goes to every Indian, I want to say Chak De India."
The match officials collect their mementos. Sir Richie Richardson, the match referee, is absent though as he had to dash to the airport to catch a flight.
11:45 PM local time (1:15 AM IST): And at last, it's time for the presentation!
Meanwhile, the BCCI has announced a cash prize of INR 21 crore for the victorious Indian team!
'We could have had another 20 overs of cricket' quips a miffed Ravi Shastri on air as the wait for the presentation continues.
It's been an hour since the game ended and we continue to wait for the presentation ceremony. It's 11:30 PM local time in Dubai.
While we wait, here's a look at a six that is bound to be played for a long, long time to come if you're an Indian fan!👇
We still continue to wait for the presentation ceremony to begin. It should commence shortly!
The moment where the chase pivoted India's way. Here's a look!👇
