AND to do it at THE HOME of Cricket, Lord's!!!!!!!:wub:

we are deffo well drunk now!!!!

Yes to all that ... Like I said it has been long time in the making and what a good place to be at Home of Cricket ... 

More than that this should really boost cricket in England which as I read in the news has being on a downward trajectory ... This WC for England has been a 4 year in the making thing and that makes this even more rewarding with a final like this ... audiences need to start coming in. 

Still cant get that last over out of my mind !!!

I dont think i have viewed anything that was downright as pathetic as what i witnessed yesterday.

A. It was not even a 6, it was a 5. If the overthrow goes for a 4, only the number of runs completed at the time of throw if taken into consideration. The batsmen had not even crossed, so infact rashid should have taken the strike.

B. Cant believe that more number of boundaries decides the winner. I just cant believe that. Whats the logic? Whats the sense behind this. My god. Thats like saying, a team with higher number of shots on target is the winner.

I have never seen a more unworthy winner. New Zealand were completely robbed.

I understand the rules are just too complex but everyone knows about it before the players take the field and it is same for both. 

But seriously "The batsmen had not even crossed" what were u watching mate? Stokes dived just being short of his cease and while the ball hit the bat he was already in which is the second run add to it the four makes it 6.

I was watching the same match you were. It's not when the ball hits, it's when the ball is released. So it should have been a 5 with Rashid on strike.

Rules are complex & weird in cricket.

Partly filmed on my old estate the bit where he shouts scrubbers at the schoolgirls.

Was thinking they couldn't have that in a film now..

I know its a sort of cult student film, but still some brilliant lines in it ''Are you the farmer ? (to a bloke on a tractor with his leg in a plastic bag) -We've come on holiday by mistake''
