00:00The day after securing a historic maiden title, the party continued for Hobart Hurricanes players
00:09and fans.
00:10It was amazing, it was so exciting.
00:17Relishing a long awaited victory, seven years after the Hurricanes last made it to a final
00:23and more than a decade after joining the Big Bash League.
00:26Fourteen years, it was worth the wait, worth the wait, no, fantastic.
00:32Today fans gathered at Kangaroo Bay on Hobart's eastern shore to brush up on their skills
00:37and give the team a hero's welcome.
00:40One player in particular captured the attention of fans.
00:43Because Mitch Owen hit it a lot of sixes and fours.
00:47My favourite player is probably Mitch Owen.
00:50Probably Mitch Owen.
00:51Yeah, love Mitch Owen.
00:52Hobart Hurricanes supporters have watched the team fight for a title twice before, but
00:56haven't tasted victory until now.
00:59Fans here say it was well worth the wait and adds to the momentum of the Kane train.
01:04More people coming during this season would be absolutely incredible.
01:07I think they deserve that.
01:09So I'm really happy that we managed to get people back on the Hobart Hurricanes bandwagon
01:14and bring home some silverware.
