CWC Final - Black Caps v England
-
Feck em all!!
This will be better victim dining than the underarm!
Some may forget who won the 2019 Final, but ALL will remember who got shafted on that fateful day - the single most important day of New Zealand Cricket, ever!
8 wickets beats all out any day

@ACT-Crusader No! Just a generic knife-twister

The bit that hurts the most is that realistically it's as close as we'll ever get to winning a cricket world cup.
I felt this way after the 2003 campaign fell to pieces with Bond in full flight, largely due to forfeits.
But aside from that tournament we have been in the game at the change of innings of the semi-final of every tournament since 1992. We don't get to play very much high-stakes cricket so take every opportunity to be prepared for the CWC and don't take our opportunities for granted.
I think we will at least get another very real crack in the next 20 years.

When the Canes, stacked with BB, Nonu, Snake, Savea and all the other ABs list the super final to the Highlanders I thought that was our chance in a generation gone. We won it the very next year with a fresh young team. It will be hard, but who would rule us out of winning sooner rather than later

Cool.

Biggest shafting of NZ sport since the Try that Wasn't in 1905.

Law is clear -- second run only counts if they've crossed. Had they?
The video is apparently clear that they hadn't. The other thing that is significant is that Stokes would have been off strike.

Barely the biggest shafting of NZ Sport against a British side in the final minutes of a deciding match in the last two and a bit years.

The picture that proves umpire error handed England the Cricket World Cup
It was the greatest victory in the history of England's one-day team - but Eoin Morgan's side should have fallen one run short in their dramatic World Cup run-chase against New Zealand.

So Kane and Ferg made the tournament XI with Kane captain.

I have waited until I have calmed down a bit before making comment but the whole game through we seemed to be battling not only England but fate. Nearly every bit of luck went against us whether it was umpire calls, inside edges, uncontrolled shots landing in parts of the field that never see action. Then, just when it seemed we had beat that bitch lady luck into submission she came back with a cruel double blow of a deflection boundary and ump error. The fact we still had a realistic opportunity on the last ball was testament to the fight but eventually that bitch won.

I wish that the ICC would declare a shared World Cup for 2019, with sharing of the trophy. We drew through both forms of cricket matches, and had a blatant umpiring error affect the outcome of the match in the crucial last over.
I'm afraid the winner will always be England*.

We've got the decent base of a good side for 2023 - Kane, Latham, Nicholls, Neesham, Santner, Ferguson are all young enough, and I'm probably missing a few.
Blundell is 29, Ish Sodhi could be around too
