This has been incredible and just like 1966 it’s extra time. Can we find a Russian umpire?

Praying for redemption for Stokes, after his over to Brathwaite cost us a title.
MoM if we win.

Wow. Never ever watched a game of cricket before. Watched that last hour and a half.

Won’t necessarily be a cricket fan after that. But that was an outstanding spectacle.

Has to go down as one of the greatest sporting finales ever.

That's why I placed cricket over football in the other thread.
Football simply can't produce prolonged drama like that.

I haven’t seen a cricket match in possibly 4 decades, I was a huge fan back in the day. I was following the last few overs and Super Over via text on Sky website………………..I bet that was fun to watch! I’m hoping highlights can be found online somewhere…………….possibly YouTube?

Congrat’s England :D
