New Zealand vs England | Final, World Cup | Lord's | 14th Jul, 2019 | England innings

This is the closest World Cup final in recent history. Finally a competitive final. And just a few miles down the road Federer and Djokovic are battling to the death. What a day of sport.

That's ludicrous batting - you already had 7 in the over !

Another twist in tale ?

This is where mindset matters.

There was NO need for that shot.

This is why you always fear someone like Dhoni or Bevan or even Kohli (when he is set while chasing).
 
[MENTION=53290]Markhor[/MENTION] are you enjoying?? these low scoring contests are always thrilling.
 
While Stokes has been playing OK but he hasnt gotten going as of yet
 
Ben stokes. The greatest finisher ever, who never chokes is still there. And he has woakes, who is an incredible hitter. England easily winning it by 5 wickets
 
Which is more tense - Eng v NZL or Federer v Djokovich? 9-8 in the final set and last 5 overs here in cricket.
 
The art of finishing in an one day chase requires the highest cricketing intelligence.

Knowing what bowlers to target, what your scoring areas are, what risks to take and what risks not to take etc.

It's almost a specialist role.

Yes this is what I've been banging on about for last four years.

Compare this to bilateral ENG-PAK series where every other ball was going into the stands and top bowlers looked like net bowlers.

It definitely is a specialist role.
