CWC Final - Black Caps v England

@Chris-B umm, what scenario is that?
Should add that all completed runs before the hit are counted and if no run after the batsman is hit to account for the dubious scenario of fielders throwing at batsmen to prevent a run???
If hit trying complete the first run (single), ball rebowled might work
A scenario I can't see happening, what if the fielder trying to save runs by hitting the batsman, misses? Team going to be happy with non backed up overthrows?
Not much of a percentage play that one, unless there's something I'm missing.

Yeah makes sense to me. Hitting a running batsman would be very hard to do deliberately without it being blazingly obvious, and probably offer at least as good a chance to run someone out as you would have to save the run.
I wouldn't even worry about rebowling. Maybe allow a run to be counted if the batsmen have crossed?
That would mean that Stokes would have been awarded the second but not the boundary. Seems a fair outcom.

The problem with the overthrows is I have never seen it ruled that way. I don't see why they would suddenly say it was only five runs because it is a final.
There are a limited range of scenarios where you would be heading off for a second with the throw incoming.

What's the right term here? Disingenuous? Straw man?

If that is true, hats off to Stokes for the gesture

@canefan status of this game keeps rising IMO.

This tournament sets the bar that all future ones must aspire to. The ICC need to see that pure scoring doesn't create excitement. Never mind counting the number of 4s and 6s. The tension and excitement of having a real contest between bowler and batsman in conditions that could be harnessed by good execution on both sides made it great.
-
@canefan yeah the arbitrary deciding point of contention aside and despite the fact there werent the numerous games with 400+ scores that were predicted, there was alot of drama, tension and competition throughout, that you have to say made it a roaring success.

Because it is nearly always from a sprint for a quick single where they have crossed before the throw.

@Donsteppa so the 2 finalists were also the 2 'unluckiest' teams....does that make them even better (play wise having to fight against bad luck as well?)

Do you think Kane was aware of the batsmen crossing rule as does not seem to be any mention of him asking umpires if it should have been 5 or 6 and which batsmen should be facing the next delivery?

except they hadn't crossed at the time the ball was thrown in, which is the specified point at which the law states a run can be counted in the case of an overthrow

Based on what i've read from interviews, he did query the amount of runs counted initially before the umpires made their final decision after consulting with the third umpire

That was in a hypothetical future rule change where the ball is dead if it hits a batsman after a fielder returns the ball, so the boundary overthrow rule doesn't apply.

One run to win - ball driven gently to a mid on in line with the stumps. Fielder's got one stump to aim at to tie - or a large oncoming batsman to buy another ball - boom!!!
World Cup on the line - I'd definitely throw at Gatting!
Edit: or anyone playing for East-Christchurch-Shirley!

Imagine if, runs tied, England had 13 fours and 2 sixes across regular match + super over. And we had 10 fours and 4 sixes. Both teams have same runs, and same total runs from boundaries (64).
England still win on number of boundaries (15 vs 14), even though we have more sixes.
The boundary rule is presumably there to encourage more aggressive/swashbuckling play, but isn't even coherent in how it does that! It assumes boundaries are "better" than 1s and 2s, but not necessarily that 6s are better than 4s given the above. So it's completely ridiculous.
