Just read a report on it where it has been written that “New Zealand May have lost - but they have won friends”.

Totally agree - if it's true that Stokes asked the umpires NOT to award the 4 runs for overthrows, then he's gone up a notch in my estimation too.
I suspect that my next door but one neighbour's brother (Liam Plunkett) may well be in line for a gong of some description along with the rest of the team.
