Thought Kane was going to get a century. Dropping him on 17 could come back to haunt Hazelwood.

Starc Over 1 0-9
Over 2 0-19
Over 3 0-22
Over 4 0-10

Great win. Happy for Mitch marsh. Time for Finch to step aside

A lot of doubters have egg on their faces this morning. All the big mouths wrote them off.
Fantastic tournament win and big congratulations to Justin Langer and his team.
You proved the world wrong.

Win the toss win the game. Seems such an advantage playing under lights at that venue, or should I say most venues.

Not taking anything away from the Aussies, but would be interesting to see if the result would have been different if the kiwis were chasing. Some people think it should be two ten over games so both teams experience the same conditions.

Anyway, bottom line great to win

Or they could have just played the game earlier and allowed many more viewers in the actual 2 sides in the final watch

Not even a million people across both countries would've watched. Peak time in UAE plus peak time in India/Pak/Lanka...no brainer.

Even if it mean fair playing conditions .....13/14 sides batting 2nd winning isn't coincidence .....

No. the next T20 world cup is next year, (you just won the 2020 year one...held every 2 years
). no one has beaten the reigning RL 7s for 17 plus years
