Cricket World Cup England & Wales 2019 (30/05 - 14/07)

At least Lance Klusener and Allan Donald are finally exonerated from the most ridiculous way to lose a World Cup game. :lol:

That last over in normal time was incredible.

Fair play to the NZ lads for the sportsmanship too...

England :bow:

Amazing game, full of drama and tension, do think the rules of cricket are a bit ridiculous at times though, to give a team a win based on boundaries seems unfair, they should have done some sort of sudden death bowling instead.

Rewards more positive/exciting play I guess? Not that I’m an expert in Cricket.

Cricket is usually deathly dull so that's no bad thing.

apparently England should only have had five runs not six when it bounced off Stokes' bat...
