Match Day

1957dManish Verma

A surreal match that pushed the boundaries

An India fan had hopes of seeing his team lift the World Cup at Lord's. Instead he lived through the disappointment and delirium of a match for the ages

Trent Boult and the catch that wasn't

When he accidentally trod on the boundary rope attempting to catch Ben Stokes, it put into motion a sequence of improbable events that saw England lift the trophy

1959dESPNcricinfo staff

'The best white-ball game of all time!'

Scores level after 100 overs. Scores level after the Super Over. England beat New Zealand 26-17 on the number of boundaries hit in the final to become world champions. Can't believe it? That's how the sporting fraternity reacted as well

Look ma, no fingernails

Astonishing, unprecedented, lucky, smart, brilliant, unlucky, flattering, faltering, preposterous - the World Cup final was all that and more
