Eoin Morgan reacts to England’s dramatic win vs. New Zealand in the 2019 Cricket World Cup final at Lord’s Cricket Ground in London. The England skipper hopes that the victory and his multicultural side resonate on a national stage at the same level that the Wimbledon men’s final and the British Grand Prix does. Morgan reflects on a key moment when the ball hit Ben Stokes’ bat while he was diving and rolled to the boundary rope, and he lauds Stoke’s extraordinary character to bounce back from the heartbreak of losing the 2016 World T20 final to Carlos Brathwaite and the West Indies in Kolkata. He empathises with New Zealand’s poor fortune at key points of the game, but fails to see a better alternative than boundaries scored to decide a match that remains tied even after a Super Over.
