Rule that suggests England should NOT have won Cricket World Cup

England's players have been given a heroes' welcome at Lord's after legendary umpire Simon Taufel highlighted the rule that suggests they should NOT have won the World Cup.

England became world champions for the first time after a thrilling final with New Zealand went to a Super Over and celebrated in style at The Oval with thousands of supporters on Monday.


Just 24 hours earlier across London, both sides ended their innings on 241 with the final going down to the very last ball of the Super Over before Jos Buttler ran out Martin Guptill.

But Taufel has highlighted a controversial moment from the last over of the initial innings where the umpires made a 'clear mistake'.

England needed nine runs from the last three balls when Guptill's throw accidentally hit the bat of Ben Stokes and went for a boundary.
