ON 14TH JULY 2019, THE FINAL BATTLE OF ENGLAND VS NEW ZEALAND WAS REALLY TOUGH; BUT ENGLAND HAD THE VICTORIOUS LAST LAUGH !!!

"Though, the Indian Cricket team 
was there in almost everyone's 
favourite LIST; 
but, alas, by defeating India, 
both New Zealand and England each 
became the FINALIST. 
As the days progressed, the bowlers 
started to dominate in the TOURNAMENT; 
really, what an 'In Swing' and 
'Out Swing' bowling ENTERTAINMENT. 
On 14th July 2019, at Lord's, Nicholls 
scored 55 and Latham scored 47; 
though, New Zealand scored only 241/8, 
due to Plunkett's 3/42 and Woakes's 3/37. 
For England, the run chase looked 
competitive, as the New Zealand's 
captain is WILLIAMSON. 
The man who dismissed both Bairstow 
and Butler and also took a marvellous 
catch is FERGUSON. 
In the initial stages, English batsmen 
were not in a HURRY; 
but kept on tackling the good swing bowling 
attacks from Grandhomme and HENRY. 
The strike rate of Butler who scored 59 
was so good as he played 
some smart STROKES. 
After Butler's dismissal, 
the eyes of all the English fans 
were on STOKES. 
New Zealand team is the Italian Team 
of Cricket as they are expert in 
defending almost any low SCORE. 
So many all rounders are there in this 
New Zealand team and you never know, 
on a particular day, who will ROAR ! 
For the last 2 overs, 12.00 
was the required RUN-RATE. 
At the right time, Neesham took the 
wicket of PLUNKETT. 
Boult took the catch but his leg 
touched the boundary ROPE. 
The 5 bye runs gave England 
again some HOPE. 
Stokes remained unbeaten at 84, and a ICC 
World Cup final got tied for first time EVER; 
and also for the first time any ICC World Cup 
final, its headed towards a 'SUPER OVER'. 
In the Super Over, 
England scored 15. 
By losing 1 wicket by run out, 
New Zealand also scored 15. 
Really, what a thrilling and 
competitive final match it has BEEN. 
It is surely one of the best final matches, 
the spectators worldwide has SEEN. 
It was really very hard to differentiate 
between the two finalist teams, and thanks 
to them for giving us such an entertainment, 
really, well played NEW ZEALAND; 
but, one team has to be the winner and 
for the first time ever, that is in 2019, 
the ICC World Cup got 
lifted by ENGLAND."- Arindam Sain
