The New Zealand coach Gary Stead said that sharing the trophy is something that should be considered (in the future that is, not this one retrospectively).

Me and wife were just discussing if it was India or Roy in the 6-run controversy, Kohli or Roy would have blown up and half the Indian team would have surrounded the umpires just to argue with them, which would result in the umpires going upstairs for no reasons, and someone would have found out the extra run should have been taken off and they had the wrong player on each ends...(Kohli was arguing about an umpire drs call during this tournament)
....but the kiwi attitude is always "hey let's forget about what happened and focus on the next ball so we don't get distracted and not perform to our abilities in the next few balls," maybe the boys just followed Kane's calm way....
I would have preferred them to debate with the umpires to go upstairs, make Stoke cool down, plan the next few balls, and re-focus once play resume....but still pretty gutted like flem said, most if not all major 50/50 calls went to the host, the most we got was maybe that wide in the super over.
Edit: and for the Wagner comment, lol, I am sure he was the one who batted with CDG and Sodhi to fight off the ENG bowlers in the 2nd test last year, he got out with 5 minutes of play left so he reviewed it to eat up time, and we won the series without facing another ball, or not many balls with a wicket left. That's the smart I was on about

If DRS was in club cricket you'd have to come up with some 'serious' punishment for losing a review like a $100 fine, otherwise it would literally be gone with the first decision made by the umpire in the innings, every single time

When something has not happened before, it will be crazy for anyone in the cricket community to get nitpicky and strongly question it and ask to change it. But it is not intelligent on the administrators' part to foresee that. It is their job and they failed in it.
When you organize an event, you prepare for any emergency like accident, fire etc. But people coming to the party cannot be fighting with you and questioning you if you have prepared fire emergency etc. It is your job and they assume you will do it.

Oops, Just followed the posts beneath above post and TJB has already made the point I made.

I don't know why you think it is not a great analogy but to me, it is a perfectly similar scenario. Like you yourself have said, the back-up plan has to be thought through which was not done and which is why many are not satisfied.

It was a perfect analogy cricaddict. You can't expect every person who could be potentially be affected by a protocol or law to fully review and understand every law or policy that might potentially affect them. That's insane, not to mention physically impossible.

mainly because fire safety is written into the laws of most countries and failure to have that at an event means people could potentially die, whereas here we're talking about the tiebreaker of a cricket game
not the same thing.
