In the grand finale of ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 (CWC 19), England cricket team defeated the New Zealand cricket team in the Super Over thriller to lift their maiden World Cup title at The Lord’s cricket stadium in London on Sunday. What a dramatic encounter between England and NewZealand, it is indeed the quality at its best but at the end, some minor mistakes eventually turned out to be favorable for one side so it won’t be wrong saying Luck does not have a role it has.
Batting first after winning the toss, New Zealand had posted 241/8 in 50 overs in reply to which, England ended at the same score leading to the one-over eliminator at the Lord’s.
In the Super Over, England batted first and the duo of Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler made 15 runs, and New Zealand also ended at the same score but for the loss of one wicket, paving the way for an English victory on boundary count.
