NZ won toss in 2019 WC and WTC final.

NZ is not the bunny against either of these team. Rather we are NZ bunny.

NZ enjoys the comfort of having very less pressure .. no body cares if they lose or don't do well.

Feel sorry for england. Dew did them in.

 

You need a 220 to defend on these stupid grounds.

There was no dew.England were on course to win but poor bowling towards the end lost them the game.Morgan should have gone for an extra bowler.

English bowlers lost control on ball due to dew. Accept it and move on. Do not deny the reality. The last 5 overs were difficult and rashid was constantly rubbing the ball with towel.

 

Lot of cricket fans deny the impact of climate to make the sport look "fair".

[kepler37b]

Whoever bats first in final score 240 and hope the dew does not come in till 15th over. If it comes in 1st over, 300 will not be enough.

If Pakistan wins it, it will be thoroughly deserved as they have been the only undefeated team in the tournament. What a turnaround it will be after the NZ and Eng tour cancellations as well. Great going so far by a great team

Looks like Morgan will leave captainy.

He should. Despite bleating of global commentators he’s actually a pretty rubbish captain.

What has cancelation on security grounds to do with performance on the field? Its a very immature way of thinking

You still need to keep cool and put those balls away. I can guarantee our indian batsmen would haev choked when rrr was almost 15

Seems like England bandwagon fans need to accept that dew is part of the conditions in that part of the world and move on.  Lot of sore losing coming from the pom contingent.

NZ is perrenial bunny team of whichever it faces in final. They will start with loosing the toss in final rest we all know.

Bullshit, tying world cup and then tying a huge super over score is opposite of being bunny and choking. And we all know what happened in WTC final

 

This willaimson led team is the opposite of bunnies and chokers

End of day toss is boss

Just to clarify, I wasn't linking up the 'they deserve to win' with the 'cancelation of the tours'. I said 'IF they go on to win, they would have deserved it' AS they will have been undefeated this tournament, which no other team can claim. In fact, not a single team in the entire history of world t20s has ever won the tournament undefeated. The second sentence about the turnaround from the cancelation of the tournament was unrelated to the first, and was just an observation. Sorry if I didn't make it more clear. Cheers :-)

At international level, that's a given. At national level, it's doubtful.

The impact of the dew does NOT prove kiwis are inferior.  Neither that poms are superior.

England lost with pride and fought hard.

 

India was bashed in the group stage.
