Off to bed. I'll wake up to a new CWC champion.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

England 71-3 after 19.3, Roy, Bairstow, and Root gone. Advantage us, but still anybody’s.

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

I've seen enough. Congrats to England who are about to do it and awesome they get to do it Lords.

Awesome from our guys though. Kiwis!

 

[Beavers Headgear]

I’m broken here, to even be in a superover after a kiwi gets them there off the most unlucky deflection you could ever see is just crap

Yeah - must feel completely empty to lose as a player like that

Equivalent of being tied after 90mins of a grand final so they go back and give it to the team that took more runs out of dummy half

What makes a boundary more important than wickets taken as well ? Surely they should have just played until there was a winner on the field

 

[JJ]

Runs are runs... why not give it to the team that faced the fewest dot balls...

It just seems arbitrary - a shame, remarkable game, and so pleased with how they really stood up in a steely determined way in the semi and final, went toe-to-toe with the two best ODI teams in the World - beat one well, and tied with the other

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Gutted.
Boult stepping on rope so costly when he could have lobbed it easily to team mate.
The 4 off the return throw off the bat seems wrong.

Not sure why they go back to boundaries. Should just go to another over till a winner. Batsman out can't return.

 

[Blair]

What drama, and confusion, to wake-up to!
