  • New Zealand captain Kane Williamson.

    New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson had no complaints on the manner in which England beat New Zealand to the 2019 World Cup trophy at Lord’s.

    A super over followed a tied game but a tie in that too handed the hosts the trophy by virtue of scoring more boundaries.

    Williamson had absolutely no problem with a game of such high magnitude being decided in such a way.

    “I suppose you never thought you’d have to ask that question and I never thought I’d have to answer it,” he said after the game.

    “You know, it just is what it is really, the rules are there at the start. No-one probably thought that we would have to sort of resort to some of that stuff, but yeah, very tough to swallow.”
