The InternationaI Cricket Council (ICC) has been coming up with some interesting yet funny questions to test the knowledge of cricket fans on social media. ICC had earlier asked a couple of questions like who was the batsman following Mitchell Marsh while he was going out to bat and then wondered what was the discussion going on between English skipper Eoin Morgan and the new head coach Chris Silverwood. Recently, the governing body of world cricket once again decided to test the creative skills of the fans.
ICC asks fans to caption a moment featuring Jimmy Neesham
ICC took to social media and asked the fans to caption a moment that featured the New Zealand all-rounder Jimmy Neesham staring as well as having a word with English batsman Sam Billings during the final over of the fifth and final T20I on Sunday at the Eden Park in Auckland. The fans came up with innovative answers. Here 's what they had to say.
England snatch another win in Super Over
Jonny Bairstow's quickfire 47 off 18, laced with five sixes and two boundaries, got England off to a flying start before the hosts put the break on the visitors' momentum. Requiring 16 runs off 6 balls, Chris Jordan smashed 12 runs off three balls to help England reach 146 runs and tie the game. For the second time in four months, fans witnessed yet another super over, this time in the shortest format of the game, to decide the winner of the contest. With England being sent to bat first in the super over, Eoin Morgan and Jonny Bairstow hit a six each as they helped the visitors post 18 runs in six balls. New Zealand's Tom Seifert and Martin Guptill failed to hit any big shots off a disciplined super over from Chris Jordan, thereby handing England a comfortable 9-run win over New Zealand.
