MCC President Kumar Sangakkara hailed the amazing spirit shown by the entire New Zealand squad, led by Kane Williamson and said that they were worthy winners of the Spirit of Cricket Award despite going through a roller-coaster of emotions till the last ball. He said:
The World Cup final-loss at the hands of England proved to be one of the most agonising defeats, even eclipsing the 2015 World Cup loss against Australia in the finals. England walked away as champions of the world by virtue of more boundaries scored after a draw in the super over failed to give a winner.
