    Final - England v New Zealand

    I think if there's a lesson to be learned here, it's that there's no substitution for preparation. You can't leave a single stone unturned, ever! You need to know, going into a match... or rather, you need to be mindful going into a match, of the number of boundaries that you hit, because...

    Final - England v New Zealand

    Heh! One news report finishes with the words: "And if there's a more farcical way to finish a match, we'd like to see it!"

    Final - England v New Zealand

    Final - England v New Zealand

    Been texting a French friend in Paris. My brothers, I can tell you, cricket was the real winner here today... and England because they're world champions, but also cricket won... and New Zealand lost.

    Final - England v New Zealand

    This is the best day of my life! That was unquestionably the greatest game of cricket of all time. That's better than Australia/South Africa from 99. I just can't believe how incredible that script was! Boult choking by stepping on the rope, the fieldsmen piffing the ball into Stokes' bat when...
