Not sure how Stokes comes back from this. Just devastating.

Yes!!!!! What a last over. What an innings from Samuals and Braithwaite just destroyed Ben Stokes.

Stokes will have nightmares about that guy.

Wow. What a game. What a superb and exciting match

Well done West Indies and Marlon Samuels and Carlos Brathwaite for some stunning batting at the end

Unlucky England. 15 to 20 runs too short in your target. But had you said to me a month ago England would be in the final, I'd have called you crackers

Lets face it before we criticise the bowlers too much, it was the Batsmen who lost this game for England

This should have been in the bag. Four awful deliveries deservedly punished.
I have to give credit to the batter.

Marlon Samuels is so hateable he was off the field when the umpires called him back

Saying that stokes tactics in the last over were wrong, short boundary in the leg side should bowl wide yorker.

Can't watch West Indies celebrate this, lots of dislikable characters in that side.
Have to agree

I do like Curtley Ambrose though

Stokes bowls well at the death usually. Can't blame Morgan going to him.

I thought we were done for and never expected to see Braithwaite do that. That was just ridiculous hitting.

Unlucky England, made a real fight of it in a difficult position.

Stokes is a complete and utter joke. 19 runs to play with and he still cocks it up. Disgraceful from him.

To be fair it was both.

Not enough runs and then too many wides from England. 9 extras.

That was a bad last over from Stokes and now he has to show he can come back from it. Sugar-coating it or making excuses is not showing him the proper respect.

Blimey, talk about your sporting catastrophes, that's got to go into the all-time top five! Up there with Lindsay Jacobellis' grab that cost her the gold medal in Torino and Neil Fox's conversion miss in 1968.

Guessing your cricket knowledge is minimal

1 he is not a disgrace, his performances in the rest of the tournament show that
2 the batsmen were superb at the end
3 he is one of our best death bowlers. It happens

When your names on the trophy it's on the trophy. Win 10 tosses in a row, had a guy out off 2 no balls and by stepping on the boundary in the semi go on to score the winning knock. Had a guy almost off the pitch out in this game before being called back going on to score the winning knock!

If you'd been born a few years earlier you'd have had bragging rights for life
