We won due to having the most boundaries which is the next tie-breaker

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

It was played by British officials in Kabul 180 years ago but, unlike India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, it never was played by the normal Afghan population after the British left.   There's a goo

...they should really address how they break ties in cricket.

Why? If it was a three, four or five day match it would stand as a tie. However, a knockout one day match has to have a winner so they introduced the super over to try and resolve ties. If it still level after the extra over there has to be a tie-breaker. Awarding it to the team who has scored the most boundaries (4s and 6s) is rewarding the team who has played the most positive, attacking cricket. Can you suggest a better way?

for sure, they should play at least a second (and maybe even a third) super-over (with mandatory different bowlers and at least one different batsman in the partnership in each of those super-overs)...

 

then, and only then, they can go down to other kind of tie-breakers (and I agree that the most boundaries criteria is probably the best one you can choose)...

 

by the way, now this CWC has gone...those are just ideas for the future...

 

and wow! what a final it's been...:yikes:

 

I'm exhausted (and my heart is bleeding for the Kiwis)...

 

the Gods of Cricket are certainly from England...:facepalm:

 

NZL didn't have their best offensive inning, but their bowlers were (or, at least, looked) in control for most of the second inning...when zac! 2 of the luckiest sixes ever gave England a chance...

 

and also in the super-over NZL were kind of betrayed by their supposed best bowler, Trent Boult, who gave up 15 runs in 6 balls...probably they should have used Colin de Grandhomme, who today was actually the most effective among the NZL bowlers...:mumble:

Why is it called a World Cup anyway? There's nobody from outside the Commonwealth even playing this sport? :mumble:

 

it's a world cup because there are teams from all around the world...Europe, Asia, Africa, Americas, Oceania...

 

actually, Cricket is one of the few team sports where you can find at least 1 top team from each of the 5 Continents...:evil:

 

p.s. maybe the level is not so good as it is in the main Countries of the sport, but Cricket is played regularly also outside the Commonwealth Nations...;)

This should be called British Empire Games at best :lol:  The last true relict of the colonial era. Irrelevant sport nobody pays attention to IMO.

Again, British Empire is no longer the world. Hell, badminton is more popular than cricket but the numbers are skewed since these sports are popular in some of the most populous countries in the world. Cricket isn't a global sport, it's a big fish in a very, very small pond. Why would they reduce the number of teams taking part in World Cup in first place if it's so popular? :mumble:

      Update after Matchdays 8 and 9.   Group A:  is almost a lock with 21p, and 7 games 7 wins. Almost impossible for them to not qualify. The battle is in the second place between  (16p) and  (13p).  with 8p is almost out.  and  eliminated.   Group B:  won both of the 2 games so is almost secured with 19p.  is second with 14p, with  (1 more game played) and  with 11p.  is eliminated and  practically too (6p)   Group C:  went 2 out of 2 so they are still first with 16p and one game less than the rest. The battle for second place will be between  14p,  11p and  9p.  eliminated and  (with one game less and 4p) probably too.   Group D: Only 3 for 2 places.  first with 19p has the advantage, but coming close is  with 16p. They played each other in the Matchday 11 of 12. Coming in third behind is  with 11p. ,  and  eliminated.   Group E: Both  and  won both matches so its still the same, Poland first with 24p and Italy second with 21p, which is the best runner-up and also qualifying directly, so is very likely that both teams end up qualifying no matter who finish first and second. , ,  and  eliminated.   Group F: A tie between  18p and  18p. Germany has the goal advantage (+21 to +20), and has to play the three weaker teams, so its more likely to qualify. Coming behind are  with 10p and  with 9p, which are practically eliminated with  and   Group G:  takes the advantage with 12p and one game less.  and  both have 7p, and coming behind are  5p (but one game less) and  with 5p.   Group H:  with the win against  moved to first place with 13p (and one game less), and Turkey stays in second with 11p.  is coming in third with 8p, while  is eliminated and  have 3p and one game less.   Group I: A triple tie between ,  and  with 10p.
