BB McCullum: It's been one hell of a ride for us. We have played some outstanding cricket and we ran into an oustanding Australian team and they thoroughly deserve to win. To take 7/33 at the end, they put us under a lot of pressure. In the end, we were the second best team on the day. No regrets, this is the greatest stage that you can ask for as a cricketer. We are obviously not able to lift the trophy, but the brand of cricket we have played, we've entertained everyone and we walk away with our heads held high. I am proud of all the guys in the team. We've still got some work do, but I am proud of what we've done
This victory will be the crowning glory of those Australian cricketers, who lifted the glittering trophy. New Zealand too can be proud of their performance as they played with a positive mindset through out the tournament to reach their first final.
Australia won by 7 wickets.
