Matthew Wade......Wow!!!

One of the great white ball performances.

Stoinis and Wade pulling it out from the fire - not many would have had them in the team. Especially Wade with everyone pushing Inglis. Both having excellent tournaments in positions we've typically struggled in.

Bravo George Bailey!! The golden touch...nailed it!!!

NZs Devon Conway will miss the T20 final after breaking his hand from punching his bat after he was dismissed in the England game. D’oh!

I can easily believe that some people are that stupid but it's hard to fathom that they are happy to go public with such nonsense.
All down to ego I suppose.
I hope someone in the media is happy to remind the ‘Walking Ego’ of his comments sometime this summer.

Even money game now. We need two of our first 4 bats to have decent innings.

The dropping of Williamson early could be match defining.

Starc slaughtered. Could have done with having a third man on the boundary.

Yes, dropping Williamson was very costly, I reckon Hazelwood was too far in from the boundary.

The Kiwis scored 57 off the first 10 overs, and 115 off the last 10.

Yes unfortunate for Hazelwood as he was by far our best bowler but may have dropped the T20 world cup.

What a great innings by Marsh. Warner and Maxwell great support. This is a defining moment for Australian cricket.

A great effort from Hazelwood, Zampa and Cummins too. Zampa has gone to another level, and should be seriously considered to play in the Ashes.

Watched the Kayo mini this morning. Batting second always a huge advantage in this format. Great batting performance.

In the wake of L2R2R passing it would be great to know if that’s the oldest World Cup winning team , whole team were old when I followed cricket.

Read the comments on an Australian cricket Twitter tweet, 9 out of 10 were congrats and comments from Indian names , man they love the game of cricket

Is it cricket though?
Being a Test Match purist, I have my doubts.... ;)

Didn't think we were good enough at T20. Great effort to win, especially with Finch and Smith not contributing much throughout the tournament.

Amazing effort. Zampa huge all tournament.

Got to hand it to CC's mate Warner as well. Player of the tournament after essentially being shut out of his IPL team.

Marsh, Hazlewood also fantastic!! Will also give a big lift for the Ashes.
