Comments from a former top umpire suggesting that England were incorrectly awarded an extra run in the Cricket World Cup final have come as a surprise to Black Caps coach Gary Stead. "At the end of the day the umpires are there to rule and they're human as well and like players sometimes error are made. GETTY IMAGES England all-rounder Ben Stokes raises his hands to suggest he did not purposely make contact with his bat. Stead he expected the ICC to review the rules in the wake of the World Cup final. I'm sure when they're writing the rules they never expect the world cup final to happen like that so I'm sure it'll be reviewed, absolutely."
