Strange that a game that has 5 days matches did not have time to do another super over and decided the World Cup winner by counting boundaries. #ICCRules
6 boundaries are important than 2 wickets? Or for that matter, is 1 boundary more important than 10 wickets if #SuperOver is tied? 🤔 #CWC19Final#ENGvNZ#ENGvsNZ
My suggestion - if the runs are tied, even after the super-over, play another over!
This seems like a simple enough solution - and in my opinion more practical than 'oh the other team scored more boundaries'
What if that's tied too? Play another. You won't have that many overs.
If Wimbledon final had to be decided on the number of aces hit, Federer would have won. But they kept going till they had a proper winner. Unlike @ICC and their 'one who hits more boundaries will win' joke.
The DL system is actually based on runs and wickets lost... yet the Final result is only based on Boundaries hit? Not fair in my opinion. Must have been great to watch!
Difficult to digest this more boundary rule. Something like sudden death- continuous super overs till a result is a better solution. Understand, wanting a definite winner but sharing a trophy is better than deciding on more boundaries. Very tough on New Zealand. #EngVsNZ
Don't understand how the game of such proportions, the #CWC19Final, is finally decided on who scored the most boundaries. A ridiculous rule @ICC. Should have been a tie. I want to congratulate both @BLACKCAPS & @englandcricket on playing out a nail biting Final. Both winners imo.
This World Cup should have been shared. If England got more boundaries. New Zealand took more wickets. So the criteria is absurd. All 22 of those boys gave their everything and no one was lesser. Then why do only 11 get to feel like they were the best.
#KaneWilliamson in PC when asked about the boundaries’ in Super Over rule:
“It’s not a question I thought would be asked, and it’s not a question I thought I would have to answer.” (smiles)
*what a guy! #CWC19Final#ENGvsNZ
#ICCRules are same like England's policies in the colonial era to earn money by looting poor people and giving England what it doesn't deserve.
#kanewillamson you deserved it more than anyone. @BLACKCAPS are blessed to have you. We are lucky to see a player like you.

And
Ravindra Jadeja
Coz after fall of 2 wkt Rahul have to be cautious
Latter 2 were able to play hard balls. They must have played more in hour of need. They must understand country need them most when top order crumbles. Middle order have to pass test thenonly
@imVkohli#INDvsNZ#indiavsNewzealand It was purely our bad luck to have rain. Same day team India was in such a high spirit. 100% They wud have won. And of course too dangerous balling and fielding by kiwis when needed.
