A couple of weekends ago England won the cricket world cup beating New Zealand by the narrowest of margins.
Ben Stokes was the ace card.
The New Zealand team accepted defeat with grace and good will.
Ben Stokes the all-rounder was born in New Zealand before moving to England when he was 12 - and it seems some Kiwis still see him as their own.
New Zealand captain and the player of the World Cup Kane Williamson was also nominated for the award.
“He's been the embodiment of the qualities we cherish as New Zealanders - courage, fairness, humility,"
One nation that is at ease with itself, mature and sure of its place in the world.
New Zealand has a Labour Government.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.
"Congratulations to England. And to the Black Caps, I feel nothing but pride. What a team," Ardern said in an Instagram post.
