But it was decided by two playing conditions introduced specifically for the limitations of 20-20 cricket, and not considering one-day cricket is more diverse.

That's just not right.


I love the 50 over format, it has several elements in it, not just who can get lucky on the night.

It is still a great format when there is something proper on the end of it, but unfortunately there have been too many perfunctory games played over the last 25 years.
I'd like to see an Aus-SA-NZ tri-series held every two years with games in each country to give some meaning to our summer one-dayers.

I’m still at a bit of a loss as to why England were awarded 6 for that overthrow. Shouldn’t it have been 5 only?

They had completed two runs when the ball got to the boundary, so 2 + 4 = 6.
If England had the opportunity to not take the 4 over throws, I wonder if they would have done it?
The rules say England get 4 runs, but they could have orchestrated a way. Stokes could have carried on like a dick until the umpires awarded 5 penalty runs and then in return New Zealand could have bowled a wide next ball.

This match
The tournament as a whole, shows how much better this style is over the 20/20

I think it is. How do you come up with 1 + 4?

Law 19.7.3.2 .... definitely 2 + 4

But it says except in circumstances of Law 19.8


19.8 Overthrow or wilful act of fielder

If the boundary results from an overthrow or from the wilful act of a fielder, the runs scored shall be
any runs for penalties awarded to either side
and the allowance for the boundary
and the runs completed by the batsmen, together with the run in progress if they had
already crossed at the instant of the throw or act.

When Guptil threw the ball the batsmen hadn’t crossed for their second run

No, it's what run they were going for when the run out opportunity took place, If they were coming back for the 2nd then yes, it is 6.

Just watched the replay, it is 6, they were on their way back for the 2nd, Stokes did nothing wrong, he wasn't even going to run any more as the ball deflected off of him, if a fielder had of stopped it they would've made only 2, unfortunate but nothing sinister.

Yeah, I know why it was six runs, it was the rest of the post that lost me.

Am I interpreting the law incorrectly?

19.8 Overthrow or wilful act of fielder

If the boundary results from an overthrow or from the wilful act of a fielder, the runs scored shall be
any runs for penalties awarded to either side
and the allowance for the boundary
and the runs completed by the batsmen, together with the run in progress if they had
already crossed at the instant of the throw or act.

Now they hadn’t crossed at the instant of the throw by my reckoning

You may be right Jim

Probably not but the debate came up this morning at work with a Kiwi bloke so I thought I would read up on the laws.
The wording is quite ambiguous IMO

I maybe wrong but I think this law refers to a case where say you've got me chasing the ball to the longest boundary and it pulls up just inside the rope but I kick it over because the batsman are going to run 5. They get the 5 they have already run plus the 4 for the boundary

Haha, it was a tongue in cheek way that England could have given the 4 runs they got from the overthrow back. The laws say the 4 runs stand, but the two sides could have contrived events to give the 4 runs back. I recall Pat Rafter deliberately serving a double fault after his opponent got a bad call, so it was along those lines.

Like many, this is the first time I've ever known the exact details of this rule. I'm nearly 50 and played cricket from about aged 9 till I was 30. Just amazing it's come to the fore in a world cup final.
