This thread hasn’t been particularly spectacular for me given that a couple of weeks ago I question Ben Stokes’ value to the team! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted November 13, 2022 Report Share Posted November 13, 2022 In tight games in sport it usually comes down to who gets the bits of luck. England have had that today with loads of played and missed and Alfridi going off. It’s exactly what our football team haven’t had this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted November 13, 2022 Report Share Posted November 13, 2022 T20 winners! Beaten Pakistan in the final, Stokes 52* and holders of the 50 overs World Cup as well! No other nations has achieved that before. Congratulations England! Well done Buttler and his boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You`re probably right. If it had been Pakistan v New Zealand and went the same we`d be saying it wasn`t ever in doubt, it`s only because it was England. It`s a bit like watching City `hanging on` on Sky and worrying yourself sick when the neutrals in the studio say the result was never really in any doubt. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but Stokes was within a millimetre of edging one behind a few times before he hit a couple of fours, if he had and Afridi didn’t get injured it would certainly have been closer. But you take what’s thrown at you and we’re deserved winners in the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
