T20 World Cup - England win convincingly

The creators of the T20 version, England, finally won an ICC title thanks to their bowlers in the first innings and the batsmen in the chase.

Australia did not change their batting order and hence, their in-form batsmen did not have enough time to play more balls. What this meant was that their score was mediocre at the end of 20 overs. Good bowling, fielding and captaincy from England was key in restricting the Oz batsmen.

On the field, England were guided by their T20 specialist Craig Keiswetter in the chase and finished by their best batsmen in all cricket, Kevin Pietersen.
