England.

Yes it was a nightmare over from Jordan.
I said during the game if England loose I want New Zealand to win the final.
 
England were 20-25 runs short with the bat.

It was always going to be close and the Kiwis had just enough to get it done. A few mistakes in the field but a close game.
 
57:needed off 4.
Almost impossible to lose from that position, if they had bowled reasonably at the end.
Jordon's over swung it NZ's way.
Like others, I hope NZ win it.
 
That's right, our bowling went haywire the nearer the end was. The total was well defendable.
Well done NZ after a poor start...

In modern T20 cricket those sorts of numbers happen quite a lot. For a few overs at the end pretty much anything can happen, remember Carlos Brathwaite?

England were just a bit flat on the day, maybe a bit too rigid in their plans. Losing just 4 wickets, 1 in the last over and only scoring 166 suggests that we simply did not go hard enough, Morgan facing only 4 balls. Malan and Moeen batting well but simply not explosive enough, 8 or 10 overs of Livingstone and Morgan might have made a difference.
