Barbados, May 17: England are the World T20 Champions. It was England’s biggest win in the limlited-over format as they beat Australia by seven wickets in the final of the World T20 at the Kensington Oval on Sunday.
Chasing a competitive 149, England hardly broke a sweat as they romped home with three overs to spare after a match-winning 111-run partnership between Man of the match Craig Kieswetter and Kevin Pietersen. Kieswetter was the star of the day with a blazing 63 off 49 balls. The wicketkeeper-batsman smashed seven fours and two sixes, one of which was a one-handed backhand slash.
