I could have bowled 4 better deliveries than that. What a twat.

Some fine fillies in the stands there tonight. Just saying, like.

 

[Danamy]

4 shocking balls to be fair, all completely in the slot, terrible length

Also considering his strength is leg side........utter madness

Yep, Brathwaite is strong off his legs and Stokes sticks them in there. Great hitting though and a really good tournament all told.

Not really into cricket but I've watched quite a few matches 20/20 got me hooked been a great event and very exciting

 

[Tricky_Trev]

I'd love to know what they said in that "meeting" just before the last over.

Couldn't of picked a better tournament to start watching cricket. Been some brilliant matches, that one topped it off.

Looks like Stokes had a bet on the game!

 

[BigOscar]

Stokes's reputation as someone who wants to be the center of attention and be the one who wins the game might take a bit of a hammering after that. Completely bottled it after everyone else had done brilliantly to put him in that position.

Shocking finale.

 

[Jacob Smith]

Hope Stokes feels bad about that he cocked it right up. Undid all Willow and Jordan's hard work with that first ball of the last over

What a twit. Delivering four half volleys in a row.

As for Ambrose going on about having three world champions, it's not proper cricket.

"Hey I`ve heard that Demichelis has had a £1000 on us to win".

 

[Mike N]

Wow, talk about bottling it? He looks like a bit of a 'blamer' so the poor old sub will be getting it now.

Sorry, what's not proper cricket?

 

[DTKOAG]

Here's me thinking atleast Samuels is not on strike..

Stokes does strike me as a player who likes to give it out but doesn't like it back.

 

[DiscoSteve]

can't believe they've thrown it away - some tight bowling in the last over would have done it - but to bowl four six-able deliveries is a disgrace

 

[Bradleymcfc]

Why didn't Ali not got an over? Why save stoked for the last over when there's Willey and Jordan? Had a feeling when it was stokes we would blow it

Take a loook at the last paragraph.

Edit - gone already. It said something like "He holds the world record for bowling the worst ever final over in international cricket".
