England cricket will never forget '14 July', the day when they finally lifted the ICC World Cup trophy after a long wait. Their final victory came against New Zealand in a dramatic Super Over. 

One year after the win, England captain Eoin Morgan talked about the final and how he has watched it closely in the lockdown when no cricket was possible.

Morgan also added that no matter how many times he watches the game, it still leaves him tensed on high-pressure situations.

"The last four months have been a bit of a challenge but it’s meant I’ve actually been able to sit down and watch the whole of the final three times now," Morgan was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.

"That's allowed me to enjoy it and take it in for the first time. It’s an incredible day to watch from start to finish. It’s still tense every time I watch it, with the ebb and flow, but looking back now it feels a privilege to have been part of it.

"After we lifted the trophy and did a lap of honor, both teams were on the outfield with family, friends, kids, interacting, talking the whole time," Morgan said.

The Irishman had joined New Zealand cricketers in their dressing room to have a beer with them after the match. 

"I made a conscious effort to try that night and I went across to their changing room and spent maybe... to be honest, I couldn't put a time on it, 20 minutes, half an hour just chatting about the day and how ridiculous it was, and had a beer with him.

"It is still extraordinary to think that not only the final against New Zealand but also the Super Over that followed it finished with the scores level and England were crowned champions courtesy of hitting more boundaries in a bizarre tie-breaker."

Morgan went on to call the World Cup 2019 final one of the highlights in British sports history. 

"The dramatic nature of the day really has done wonders for the sport. The final was actually bigger than cricket and became one of the highlights of British sporting history. It’s probably even more satisfying that the final will be remembered for a very long time."
