How's Pup's comments after the game too. He didn't know that there was a Super Over in the event of a tie.

I didn't know that either, but then again, I'M NOT THE CAPTAIN OF AUSTRALIA!!!

I thought there was a bowl off if it was a tie.

It was a bowl off when t20 first came into the international arena.

Didnt last long and was changed to a super over a while ago.

Why it couldn't be left as a tie is beyond me, deserved to end with no winner as both sides were event.

Great match, White is developing into a star player in the shorter forms of the game.

Going to a "super over" may add more "excitement", but it actually goes against the "quick game is a good game" mantra of 20/20s by dragging it out another 15-20 minutes.
