England’s run to the semi-finals, and indeed final could not be extra quintessentially English. The crew got here into the tournament on a superb run and hope changed into lifted to even greater heights with some splendid performances, handiest to be met with a crash again to traditional English cynicism when we nearly inevitably lost to 2 event underdogs. From this factor on even though, they have been extremely good, growing to the project of what basically have become four consecutive knockout video games.
What else may be stated about the very last? It turned into the exceptional game of cricket I’ve witnessed and quite in all likelihood the first-class of all time. The fit had all of it and England sooner or later proved that they can rise up in those strain moments in a knockout tournament. They had no small degree of success and there has been lots of anxiety, however how else would you need to win your first Cricket World Cup?
Let’s wish this group stays together for one more World Cup underneath the cool head of Eoin Morgan and a coach who will further broaden this thrilling brand of cricket. It might be smooth to peer this because of the pinnacle, but how remarkable wouldn’t it be to push for an Australia-Esque World Cup dynasty?

We delivered the best of World Cup finals. No different international locations might have produced this sort of game. New Zealand continually gets stuck into video games and often supply some of the finest cricketing spectacles. It’s the sort of shame we remain financially boring for cricketing schedulers. Winning the World Cup would possibly have modified that, however, we’re worthy runners-up.
Jimmy Neesham changed into my player of the event. He plays tough and fearless, continues going and has a mental toughness and mature outlook on existence. He may have masses of large moments in his profession. Malcolm Eddington

India has been like a critically acclaimed tv show. After strength-packed leading performances from neo-noir legend Rohit Sharma and the experimental yet tremendously engaging directorship from Jasprit Bumrah, the maximum anticipated that pair, together with a robust helping forged, to help India execute a stunning finale. But, no matter bringing in the biggest viewing figures, the show changed into canceled on the closing second by using the executives at the World Cup – the infamous Kiwis.
MS Dhoni changed into a fan preferred, but his personal style did now not in shape the general tone of the crew. Rishabh Pant, a cult hero on the local soap opera, Indian Premier League, wasn’t prepared for the largest stage simply but. Surely, by the time the subsequent large display comes round, he might be in the spotlight. Scriptwriter Virat Kohli turned into excellent however still did no longer meet his lofty requirements and fluffed the ending. Cameos from Sir Ravindra Jadeja grabbed bits and portions of the public imagination and a sudden starring role at some stage in India’s very last moments justified calls for his regular creation to the set-up inside the destiny.

Despite the horrible thrashing in the semi-final, we completed above expectancies. Six months ago I didn’t think we’d make it to the remaining 4; in some respects, we got via because different aspects did not supply.
Mitchell Starc turned into our first-rate performer. It becomes a shame he went AWOL within the last two fits. Alex Carey looked at a category above the maximum in his ball-hanging and attitude. He changed into a real find. To play an amazing knock after being cleaned up via Jofra Archer honestly confirmed he has what it takes. The performances of Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis had been in reality disappointing. The one innings in which Maxwell seemed genuinely like to kick into equipment became the one wherein Usman Khawaja ran him out horribly.
The semi-very last discovered all our weaknesses immediately, which became a shame. Unfortunately, our home one-day opposition is now contained in a short length at the start of our season. It’s now not enough for players to enhance their competencies on this layout on the largest global degree. Scott Meehan
Pakistan: fifth in the group
Pakistan did nicely. Our overall performance would be considered tons greater definitely had we reached the semi-finals, but that’s how great the margins are. The game against West Indies turned into very expensive and a few enthusiasts think the Sri Lanka washout becomes a missed opportunity. Although we have no one accountable however ourselves for now not reaching the last 4.
