England have won the World Cup! For the first time.
On the Cricket Debate, to react to a truly unforgettable final against New Zealand - England clinching a thrilling Super Over win to lift the trophy - Charles Colvile and Bob Willis are joined by three-time runner-up Graham Gooch and Pakistan's Ramiz Raja, who got the better of Gooch in England's last final in 1992.
Gooch described England's win as "the most amazing game I've ever seen", while Bob added that England's victory was "thoroughly deserved" for all their hard work over the last four years, though "no side deserved to lose"
