Drama did not end with this, the match was tied after bowling 100 overs and it was carried to Super Over. Both the teams scored 15 runs in Super Over as well. So, following ICC rules, England was declared the winner after they got more boundaries than New Zealand.

This is the maiden victory for England, and Kiwis were devastated after losing. England got the Trophy and started celebrating. As soon as champagne bottles were pulled out to spray and celebrate, two players, Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid, ran away from the celebration.

This incident was caught on camera. Later it was said that both the players avoided Champagne because alcohol is prohibited in their religion. Soon, netizens found humour and laughed at the fact that some people don't drink and some applauded the cricket team for being inclusive. You can watch the video here.
