Sharing World Cup should be considered if finalists can't be separated: New Zealand coach

New Zealand mentor Gary Stead feels the International Cricket Council ought to consider the alternative of a having a tied outcome on the off chance that both the finalists can't be isolated if the groups are tied on similar scores after the last and the Super Over simply like what occurred in the World Cup 2019 last between his group and England.

New Zealand and England both wound up with 241 keeps running in their designated 50 overs and needed to play out a Super Over however even that couldn't separate the different sides as both scored 15 runs each.

It was then that ICC's standards became an integral factor which expressed that if there should be an occurrence of a tie in the Super Over, the group which has hit the most limits in the last and in the Super Over would be proclaimed champs.

Britain won since they had hit an aggregate of 26 limits - sixes scored crosswise over both the 50 overs and the Super Over - contrasted and New Zealand's 17, a choice which left Kiwi fans and cricket intellectuals miserable.

"Maybe when you play over a seven-week time span and can't be isolated on the last day, that is something ought to be considered too.

"However, again that is one thought over a mess of things that went on over the World Cup. Everything will be surveyed, and I imagine that it's a decent time to do it now. In any case, most likely simply let the residue settle for some time," New Zealand mentor Gary Stead said.

New Zealand's batting mentor and previous all-rounder Craig McMillan is of the sentiment that sharing the trophy in such a case would have been the proper activity.

"It won't change yesterday's outcome. Be that as it may, what is most likely reasonable for state toward the finish of seven weeks in a major competition like this, when you have two groups can't be isolated after a 50-over match and afterward a Super Over and neither one of the teams did really lose from numerous points of view as far as runs scored.

"At that point maybe sharing the trophy would be the correct activity. Wasn't to be yesterday, which we as a whole are baffled with. In any case, it is sport and those were the principles," McMillan said.

Pursuing 242 for triumph in the last, Ben Stokes' shining 84 not out helped the hosts tie the see-saw challenge, constraining the Super Over where more nail-gnawing energy unfurled.

Jos Buttler and Stokes took 15 keeps running off Trent Boult's Super Over without losing their wickets.

New Zealand likewise scored 15 keeps running off Jofra Archer's finished however England won on limit check, activating wild festivals at Lord's as the hosts topped a dazzling turnaround and finished a 44-year hang tight to bring home the World Cup trophy.
