Memories of 2015. Here's how we covered the 2015 final, which was not quite so exciting. For reference, the writer was Australian. They might be more excited once they come out of their current wilderness period.

Announcing the result: "Smith pulls to leg for four and it's all over. Australia win by seven wickets. The final was a bit of a letdown really, but there's no question that the best team in the tournament have won it."

Final post: "So that's that. A decent tournament comes to an end - it's not been a classic but it's not been too bad."

Alex Hughes was watching the game in a most exotic location, but then had to reach for the bank of Mum and Dad. "I watched the game yesterday on my laptop in a hostel in Merida, Mexico. Unfortunately, my (totally legitimate cough cough) stream went down just before the start of the 49th over. After the excruciating experience of following the 49th over by refreshing the OBO, I decided to call my parents back in the UK and my Dad provided commentary for me on the super overs via a WhatsApp call. While this was not quite the same standard of commentary as TMS it had its own unique charm. It was difficult to hear what dad was saying because he was being drowned out by the sound of Mum just screaming something inaudible about Jofra Archer over and over again in background during the second super over. By the end mum was so frazzled she was muttering something about Australians (not sure why) and on the last ball Dad finally also lost his composure and just screamed 'run out, run out, run out, run out' so I just about got the message that England had won."
