Taylor doesn't want a super over in ODIs

Taylor doesn't want a super over in ODIs




It is going to be one year of the final of 2019 World Cup. But the discussion about the super over of that final breath still comes back and forth. As Ross Taylor said after so long, surprising information. There is a super over in the final, that's what he didn't know! According to the experienced New Zealand batsman, the winner of the ODI Super Over should not be determined.

In that final at Lord's last year, the match was a tie at the end of 100 overs, and the runs of the two teams were equal even at the end of the Super Over. In the end, England became the champion in the number of boundaries. New Zealand has to burn in the pain of not being able to touch the trophy even after going so close.

After the final, cricket was criticized all over the world for the rule of determining the number of boundaries. Later the ICC changed the rules. Now even if the super overs are ‘tied’, the super overs will continue to be one after the other until a team wins.

However, Taylor does not like this rule. In an interview with a cricket website, New Zealand's most successful batsman said he did not see the need for a super over in ODIs.

"I still don't understand the issue of super overs in ODIs. ODIs are played for such a long time that even if the ‘tie’ match remains as a ‘tie’, I don’t see any problem. It could be done in a T20 match, it could be a matter of winning like football or any other sport. But I don't think there is a need for a super over in an ODI match. The winner can be announced jointly. ”

Taylor said he was surprised to learn of the super over at the end of the main match in the last World Cup final.

 "To be honest at the World Cup, I went to the umpire and said, 'Great match', I didn't know there were super overs! ‘Tie’ means ‘tie’… yes, both sides can argue about it. But even at the end of 100 overs in an ODI match, if the two teams are tied, then a 'tie' is not a bad thing. "
