In the Final or overall?
I couldn’t tell cos Askew was prancing about punching the air and explaining to Mrs Askew how he’d waited for this moment since 1966...or something

I presumed the Final but not 100% sure.

Good job you didn’t get him too pissed he may have explained to you whilst punching Mrs Askew. I only ever imagine Askew in a prance.

Right, what's up next ?
Did we enter a team in the Tiddlywinks world cup ?
Have we perfected the use of our superbly designed squidgers yet ?
If so, we should be favourites.
It's coming home. :emoticon-0148-yes:
 
A few observations:

The Kiwi's reaction to their narrowest of narrow defeats is admirable in the extreme.

Ben Stokes performance shows that keeping going no matter what is an excellent attitude for life.

Jofra Archer has balls of steel.

Good things come to those who wait. (I stayed up all night in 1987 to watch us fall short).





Finally, I hope Andrew Strauss can smile tonight. He deserves that.
 
I watched it but wasn't able to get on here. Went through every emotion what a ****ing advert for not just cricket but sport. My heart was beating like bloody mad. This is why sport is awesome. This game had everything.

Totally thrilled for the England team. NZ did everything they could but we did get that bit of luck when needed. Overall through the tournament I think we deserved it. Reading this thread though is very entertaining. Great stuff.
