The Overthrow Six — The Moment That Changed 2019 World Cup Final

England vs New Zealand

2019-07-14

Ben Stokes dived for his crease as Martin Guptill's throw deflected off his outstretched bat to the boundary — the umpires awarded 6 runs (4 for the boundary + 2 being run), though replays suggested only 5 should have been given. The 'extra' run may have changed the World Cup result.
