Here's Iceland Cricket's take on Ben Stokes deflection of the bat being compared with Diego Maradona's 'Hand of God'

England overcame New Zealand in an edge-of--seat thriller to lift ir maiden World Cup at Lord's on Sunday. hosts got fourth time lucky after y h failed in ir previous three finals in 1979, 1987 and 1992 respectively.  outcome of finale was decided on Super Over after both teams were tied at 242 after 100 overs of cricket. Even Super Over was tied after both teams finished at score of 15 but, England emerged as winners owing to boundary count, with hosts having scored 24 boundaries in ir innings against New Zealand's 17.

neless, it was Ben Stokes' superb 95-ball 84 which helped hosts in doing unthinkable after y were reeling at 86/4. However, Stokes was also involved in a bizarre incident while he was anchoring innings.

It happened in final over of second innings which was bowled by Trent Boult and a well-set Ben Stokes was on strike.   all-rounder h mistimed a full toss from Boult towards mid-wicket and ran for two. Martin Guptill covered ground and threw it towards wicket-keeper as Stokes put in a dive. However, as he put in a dive to save his wicket, ball deflected from his bat and went towards third man fence for four. Hence, England got six runs in one ball as ir equation which h re 9 runs from 3 balls came down to 3 runs in 2 balls.

This infamous incident became a subject of heated discussion as well. However, Iceland Cricket decided to have some fun as y compared Stokes' deflection with football legend Diego Marona's 'Hand of God' on social media. At same time also ding that equating Stokes with Marona was harsh.

 In case if you are wondering what it was all about, n this is an incident which h happened during Argentina's dream run in 1986 World Cup. Marona h scored a goal of his fist during ir quarterfinal win against England. 

Watch iconic moment here.

Iceland Cricket did t stop here. y also came up with a sarcastic tweet. New Zealand's heart-breaking loss was mentioned as 'Like being robbed of your wallet by having handed it over to a robber.'
