Within the 50 I assume, not the super over?

Yes.

Edit: no.

But before the super over for NZ had started they said England would win with a tie so must have been just the 50.

Still, all runs count the same. No pictures on the scorecard.

NZ scored 14 fours and 2 sixes, so 16 boundaries.
England scored 22 fours and 2 sixes, so 24 boundaries.

So NZ couldn't win on boundaries in the Super-Over.

Wow, wow, wow!

I came down from putting my son to bed to see the ball hit Stokes' bat and go for those extra runs. Missed about 15 overs prior to that and had no idea what was going on.

What a finish and what a team the Black Caps are - fair play to them.

That's a bit too "Liverpool would win the league if goals outside the box counted double" for me.
