On this day (July 14) in 2019, England won the ODI World Cup title. England defeated New Zealand in the final match.

In the match at the Lord's Cricket Ground in London, the match reached the super over after both teams scored 241 runs. However, both teams scored 15 runs in the Super Over. After that, England was declared the winner on the basis of hitting a boundary during the match. 

England hit 26 boundaries while New Zealand hit only 17. This is the first time that a match in a Cricket World Cup final has gone to a super over and the winner has been declared on the basis of boundary hits. That is why this final match is considered to be the best and most dramatic in the history of ODI cricket. 

10 countries participated in this competition. England's Ben Stokes was named 'Player of the Match' in the final, while New Zealand's Kane Williamson was named 'Player of the Series'.
