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.

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

Boult dropped the cup...
And yet again, Williamson not prepared to put himself in under pressure. Why have cart horse Guptill out there if you're opening with Neesh?
He explained it in the PC. They wanted the fastest runner out there and that was Guptill. The plan was to give Neesham most of the strike by turning ones into twos.
Guptill probably would have made it too, if he had all his toes.

A mate of mine lost one of his toes in a trampoline accident as a young fella, I never knew til I saw him barefoot once and it was a bit of a "what the fuck" type moment. Said it took him months to learn to walk and run again.
He ain't got nothing on Guppy though !

The only winner in all of this is the Australian media who will have a field day with the "World Champions".

The NZ media are banging on with the 'we was robbed' angle. I don't like us banging on about it. We all know what happened *

And Trent?

Kind of funny with all this Kane love that the panel on the TMS podcast managed to leave him out of their team of the tournament after the group stage. They came up with something like
Rohit
Roy (not sure on this one)
Shakab
Kohli
Root
Stokes
Carey
Archer
Starc
Bumrah
+1 (may have been Ferguson)
