I don’t know what made Samson POM over Bethell, other than being on the winning team. He didn’t really do anything extra behind the stumps and Bethell had a run out. Home team advantage I guess.

‘traditionally’ it always favours the batsman from the winning team. Bowlers only get it if they have 5er. TBH I think the Bhumra 17th over killed it for England and big turning point
I m sure the Kiwis would have noted that Indian bowling is not great and I think India has never won at the stadium of the finals venue. So smart money on Kiwis. (Also Kiwis won a series in India recently)

Looks like Samson agrees with me.. in his POTM speech he credits Bhumra..

Saw this on FB today >

This not looking good for the Kiwis. India 92 -0 from the power play

Eng must be feeling smug about missing this battering

Can’t wait to see what the kiwis do in response

This is some capitulation…

Huge anti climax of a final, with probably only the Indian nation celebrating their win. Can’t imagine too many neutrals were cheering them on.

Not sure any neutrals are in that stadium… anyways NZ is everyone’s second fav team ..
both the SF very much better .. the Eng v Ind was some thing..

India is turning into the Aussies in white ball cricket… cocky and winning everything.. no wonder folks don’t like them
