England are the winners for the 2019 WC and that's what will be written in the record books. You come here after 20 years and everyone will be saying that 2019 WC was won by England and it will be a history. No one will remember what happened and how England got lucky. That's a fact.
Why 20 years LOL
Ask anyone who won this years cricket world cup?
Everyone will say England :-D
We needed to see a new world cup winner and this time we got it. Yes, the luck favored England but they also played solid cricket to win the cup (notice I did not say the match).
It was totally a bad day for New Zealand in the final despite playing good cricket. If you analyze some of the moments then you will see it was completely luck that made England the world champion.
1. The catch that was stepped in on the boundary rope. (Saved Stokes or match was gone there for England)
2. That extra 4 runs by hitting the bat (Stokes bat)
3. Awarding 6 runs for this (number two) instead of 5 runs.
4. No Kiwi player, no one else complained for it at that moment because no one was aware of this rule
Sometimes I wonder about the luck that was it for England or for Stokes? I imagine him some day to get the
Knight award from the queen.
