ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

Some Indian fans on here are so bitter when it comes to England.

Not all Indian fans of course. Lot of you on here are good lads.
 
He's correct. The 50 over boundaries are included.
Yea my mistake. I read the rule and thought it meant boundries in the super over so was confused as to how they knew England would win in advance.
 
New Zealand proved beyond any doubt they were worthy finalists and 2nd best team in the world right now.

What a team.
 
Ohhhh thought the rule meant boundries during the super over.

That is pretty shit, but again who cares
:lol: if you hit the most boundries in the super over surely it wouldn't come down to boundries? You'd win on points
 
The brand of cricket england has played for the last 2 years they deserve to be rewarded. Well done England.
 
What a brilliant final man..so fecking cruel to the Kiwis but that's life.

Well done to England. Best team in the tournament. They deserved it here.
 
We deserved to win the World Cup.

Been the best side in the last 4 years.

I'm so happy
You're right England have been the best team for a while now, its good they have something to show for it.

Congratulations :)

Not really. England hit 2, new zealand hit 1 but they got the same 15. More ways to score than boundries
 
So the last three WCs have been won by the team who have hosted it.

Bring on 2023!
 
The Trafalgar Square celebrations.... Seen more excitement literally anywhere
 
I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Cricket doesn't work
 
internet may have broken and world would have had to quarantine salt, but it would’ve be funny to observe

When did you came back posting? Don't tell me it was after the SF game :lol:

That'd be very sammsky like.

Bring on 2023!

2011:- India, Srilanka and Bangladesh
2015:- Australia and New Zealand
2019:- England and Wales
2023:- Just India.

You guys are messing with powerful magic.
 
Not strange at all. A lad who learnt how to play cricket in the West Inidies system, has just helped England win. How much credit should I give them for that super over?
Eh? So the likes of Eric Dier or Owen Hargreaves should have never represented England then since their football education was in a different country?

Did you feel the same about kevin pietersen?

You also realise Archers dad is English and Archer has a British passport too right?

But yeah he's too foreign to represent England isn't it. Bit too dark?
 
I don't know, he has a British passport so he's British by law. If it was a residency only thing like Costa in football for Spain then fair enough but I don't think you can tell a British citizen that he isn't English if that is what he wants to be.
He can be as British as he wants. Using the passport to play cricket for England is the part that does not sit right. The windies used thier resources to help bring him through their system, and he just feck's them off! All for, I suspect, bigger commercial opportunities.
 
What? Surely it's less ridiculous than deciding it on boundaries in the previous game?

It's like deciding a penalty shootout that's tied at 5-5 based on the distance out any goals in the game were scored from.

Why not boundaries in the super over? Like you literally picked an arbitrary criteria so that england win.

Do another super over imo.

Start a thread on it then if it bothers you so much. Just stop raining on people's parade in this one.
