The Windies it is. How costly those no-balls were for India.
Optimistic as ever |

Awful awful display of bowling Mr Stokes that has cost us the World Cup. No prizes for coming second!! Gifted it to them. Words fail me.
Bring back Brolin |

yes Stokes final over was certainly not his best T20 moment. I think whole England thought too much about it, our own team got into Stokes head. Just needed the first two of the over to be rock solid balls and it was all over really. Instead the first one was just a giant invite to hit it for six, and he did.

Should have given the last over to Root difficult to hit a spinner than it is a pacer in those circumstances,Stokes was knackered.

All those people that just watched the last over on the news and have slagged Ben Stokes off.... Be aware that he was one of the principal reasons we were even in the final... his bowling, batting and fielding (some spectacular catches and ability to stop 4's) I feel sorry for him, not hate or ridicule. Hopefully he'll emerge stronger from this disappointment.... the captain decides who to bowl, not the bowler (unless the captain is the bowler!) Ben Stokes was up there as one of the best players in the 2016 T20 tournament!
