Kolkata, May 25 (IANS): Amid showering of confetti, fireworks and team huddles, Mumbai Indians celebrated their IPL trophy triumph at the Eden Gardens after a thumping 41-run win over Chennai Super Kings in the final on Sunday.

After the fall of every Chennai wicket, the Mumbai players would rush towards the middle, with high fives, as they embraced and congratulated each other.

Once the match got over, all the Mumbai players scampered to get hold of the stumps.

Harbhajan Singh, who contributed greatly to the team's success, bagged one of the stumps. J Suchith managed to grab another.

Crackers burst and a colourful fireworks display continued for some time.

The entire support staff, Mumbai Indians owner Neeta Ambani and her son came on to the ground to congratulate the players, as did Bollywood celebrities Farhan Akhtar, Ranveer Singh and Anil Kapoor.

The entire squad, including the support staff and the owners went into a celebrsatory huddle on the pitch.
