Jesus stokes, 19 runs to play with and bowls every ball right in the batsmens slot.

Stokes definitely wrong choice to bowl last over! With a name like Stokes was always going to go tits up at the last minute!
But lets be honest only an England side can fuck up that badly. Any England side, any sport!

Stokes should have his match fee taken off him for that over.

Unbe-bloody-lievable. What in the name of all that's holy was Stokes thinking about there. If at first you don't succeed keep on bowling the same stupid ball!!!

Jesus stokes, 19 runs to play with and bowls every ball right in the batsmens slot. That was what I thought. After the first terrible ball he had to go full and wide. Instead he bowled full and straight and got smashed 4 times. That said - that was very very special from Braithwaite. It's what T20 is all about. Congratulations to the Windies - they had the magic ingredient you need in T20.

Where in god's name were the wide Yorkers??? Where was the variety? Three balls straight into Braithwaite's favourite slot. Total disaster. FFS.

Sometimes a team's name is on the cup.
Sammy wins every toss, that's 6 out of 6, in the semi their match-winner is caught off a no-ball twice and again where the fielder treads on the boundary rope. In the final, their matchwinner is caught behind, has actually left the field before being called back cos the ball didn't carry.
Then their batter hits four sixes in a row to win the game in the final over.
Sometimes your name is just on the trophy!

Gutting to lose like that but never in a million years did I think this England side would make it to the final before the tournament started, even more so after the losing the first match to the Windies. So an excellent effort on the whole.
Hopefully it's the last we see of Morgan and Ali. Billings is too good a player to be carrying the drinks. The future is bright for English cricket, we've got a very competitive team across all formats.

Not into cricket that much but I started listening to this on the way back today in the car and watched it when I got in.
Doesn't usually bother me that much either way but I feel absolutely gutted after that.

And rightly so.

And rightly so. I don't think Ali offers enough at all in this format. His batting isn't explosive or inventive enough for the position he comes in and his bowling is average at very best, he wasn't even trusted with the ball today.

On another note I don't think the West Indies come across as very good winners. Some of the comments from Samuels were embarrassing and not one player has come out and given any credit to England.

Haven't seen Stoke's over yet - what did he do, stand in the popping crease and lob em under arm? Was he not allowed to bowl quick Yorkers? Makes you wonder how someone who bowls a cricket ball for a living can fuck up that badly?
