"Brendon McCullum has scored 328 runs in the World Cup and 308 of them have come in the powerplay. He's the reason why New Zealand are here today. It was just the quality of the bowling and the fact the ball was swinging in which did for him today."

paul warmington: One of the worst things if Australia win the #CWC15Final is four years of Aussie gloating - bad losers but worse winners.

What would you do with KP?

Ex-South Africa captain Graeme Smith on TMS: "I don't know the details - but ultimately if he wants to play for England and he's scoring hundreds in the county competition, I can't see why they wouldn't pick him."

How do you prepare to play England, as opposed to playing Australia etc?

Ex-South Africa captain Graeme Smith on TMS: "From a captaincy perspective, you always want to keep control of the game. You look at a gameplan which might keep attacking players quiet and expose those around him. England were always try to hold the game but the big thing for me was about breaking points and pressure. When I played against the great Australia teams, we could hold them until day three but they always had something extra in the tank. That changed for us over time, our breaking point grew."

Ex-South Africa captain Graeme Smith on TMS: "English cricket is so important to world cricket, I always enjoyed playing there. Whether there are too many counties, I've heard that debate - in South Africa we moved to six franchises which has worked. You often look at English cricket and think 'I wonder why they made that decision'. I think they need some dynamic people in charge there."

How flexible can you be running a team?

Ex-South Africa captain Graeme Smith on TMS: "I took over as captain at 22 and it was a massive learning curve. I worked out my own strengths and weaknesses and my own leadership really took off after 2007. With England, I think their decisions just seem to have been behind the times, they haven't kept up."

Ex-South Africa captain Graeme Smith on TMS: "I've enjoyed my break. 12 years of captaincy does take its toll. I've been blessed to have a great career but now I'm enjoying new challenges. I'm doing some business stuff, some media stuff and I'm learning all the time, developing."

The biggest (16 teams) and longest (six-and-a-half weeks) World Cup yet in the West Indies featured some early shocks, such as the group stage elimination of India and Pakistan, and the untimely death of Pakistan coach Bob Woolmer.

Australia made it a hat-trick of titles with another perfect run of 11 wins from 11, and showed their dominance in the final against Sri Lanka in Bridgetown, Adam Gilchrist smashing 149 from 104 balls as they made 281-4 in a rain-reduced 38 overs.

But a controversial tournament ended in darkness and farce, as Australia were declared winners on Duckworth-Lewis, only for the umpires - erroneously - to order the teams out to play out another three overs of spin, with both sides going through the motions.
