JUst googled it. Super over is one over each, highest score wins.

If you lose 2 wickets I think in the over you lose?

Roy and Buttler? Stokes too knackered surely

Yeah Buttler and Roy, has to be. Not sure who they'll pick.

[ealingfox]

Should have won that really.

[Finnegan]

You'd back England to win from here no? 

 

NZ don't really have the same quality of batsmen, if it's just like a straight slog off? 

 

Does it finish if you lose your wicket?

Cricket tied.

 

Tennis tied.

 

And we won the Netball. If Carlsberg did sporting days..

I utterly love this game. 

 

Not this particular final, the game of cricket.

Guptill and either Taylor or Neesham 

[RowlattsFox]

It doesn't feel right winning after that bit of luck but it's in the rules. If we do win.

 

Amazing drama. First time I've seen the rules for a super over.

Not really sure what the umpires are talking about. Surely that's either in the rules or it isn't. 

 

It's got to be clear cut no? 

 

I mean as a non cricket person really I think that's utterly insane if that's allowed but it either is or isn't. 

As he didn't change his run to obstruct the ball, classed as a misfield. Crazy!

Can't pick Stokes, he's a wreck. Absolutely shattered emotionally and physically.

[Dr The Singh]

How lucky can you get, but Stones should have smashed the last ball

Agreed - he’s played his part

[trabuch]

I pity people watching the tennis. They think they have seen a remarkable sporting event - they don't know jack. Nothing is better than this (in the summer).

Had to make sure he wasn't bowled/caught/lbw otherwise we'd have lost.

[AKCJ]

Stokes/Buttler.

[Wolfox]

Butler and Stokes…. Unreal

 

ive never seen such drama

[SouthStandUpperTier]

I remember Leics winning a super over on T20 finals day about a decade ago. Will Jefferson smashed it everywhere.

[Royston.]

Surely its meant to be for england

Disagree. Couldn't risk getting out. Correct percentage play to push it for 2 imo. 

[Wolfox]

Stokes on strike?

[AKCJ]

**** me the tennis is still going too.
