Mitchell will hole out soon I think.

On the upside I'm feeling justified about saying Pakistan wouldn't have beaten us if it went the full 50 overs, this is how easy it is to fall apart in a chase like this.
That was a weird game. An absolute road with short boundaries and NZ went with 3 spinners. They were all getting hammered, Pak had a higher chance of winning coz of NZ's bowling combination.

Cricinfo says ‘Match tied (England win on boundary countback)’

It’s so dumb that people still say this. Like I said, nobody says Argentina didn’t win the footy WC final
Is that soccer? That's because they probably scored more goals.

The match result is tied.
The world cup is on boundary countback
Well I’m going to quote your friend who said check cricinfo because the boundary countback is in brackets on the final result, not an addendum to the tournament.

This would be a valid argument if the criteria was like the 99 WC semi where it went off prior result in the super 6. But it wasn’t, it was self contained to the final. That was the criteria for winning the final. Suck it up, you’ve had four years.

There are two Kuldeep overs left, wonder if Rohit is hoping the equation gets too difficult by the time he's forced to bring him on.

Just goes to show no matter how good a bowler you are. In this format you get a flat pitch and all these rules that favour the batsmen and you’ll still struggle to be economical or get wickets like most bowlers have struggled tonight
