I'm not complaining, but NZ get 241-8 while we get 241 all out. Then we both get 15 in the super over. England win?

For a World final in any sport i don't think i can recall any better, closer or played with a better spirit - very unlucky NZ you didn't let yourselves down - thought it was another lost final down to the last ball after 8hrs 45mins what a great final and a great game.
yesssss
Class of Bairstow to congratulates his opponents first.
Great for Plunkett - coming back in to the team after first being in 12 years ago. But really Stokes - great, Archer's been on the green already
Jesus Airmiles Andy, you couldn't want for a bigger wanker to be involved from the Royal Family, still he's been there in so many Cricket matches over the years
Player of the tournament ~Kane Williamson
Man of the match- Ant Robertson
Cheap Indian wobbly Head Fukers, no Gold Medal....sheeeeesh
That was actually unbelievable. England just won its first World Cup, based on a countback of boundaries hit.
There was just so much happening at the end of that game that it's impossible to encapsulate. You can go back to Boult stepping on that boundary rope, or the throw ricocheting off Ben Stokes and going for SIX.
Hell, go back to the first ball of the day when Jason Roy was plumb LBW and given not out.
That was unequivocally the greatest World Cup final ever.
Ben Stokes agrees...
"I don't think there'll ever be a better game of cricket than that."
Winning tournament captain-
Luigi Morgan with the World Cup
65 from 48 not worried at all.
pommy batters look flummoxed - should be all out before 30 overs
the cup is coming downunder again
Stokes has run out of gas.
It seems the choking England are out today.
oh ye of little faith, teak doors team of "expert" pundits on the ball yet again.Whatever else this final being a tense affair is great for Cricket, not so much for Eng supporters
spot on, thank you.That was unequivocally the greatest World Cup final ever.
Sachin snatched a quick single there, it seemed.
Obviously not paid by the hour.

Flick over to the tennis. Probably won't miss much.
I crashed out at 1 for 100 expecting the Kiwis to pile on 300 plus.
I woke up in the morning and thought I was still dreaming.
I believe on the scoreboard 8 wickets is better then 10 wickets and the Kiwis were hard done by.
I believe for the good of the sport the best team over the last 12 months deserved the win.
Congratulations to all England supporters.
