The winner of the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup was England. England secured their victory in a thrilling final against New Zealand held at Lord's on July 14, 2019. The final match ended in a tie after both the regular 50-over game and the Super Over. In the Super Over tiebreaker, England managed to score more runs than New Zealand, securing their first-ever Cricket World Cup title. The victory was historic for England, and the match itself is widely regarded as one of the most dramatic and closely contested World Cup finals in the history of the tournament. ![Free Person Holding World Globe Facing Mountain Stock Photo](https://images.pexels.com/photos/346885/pexels-photo-346885.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&dpr=1&w=500) For the most recent updates on Cricket World Cup winners beyond 2019, I recommend checking the latest sources or official cricket governing bodies as my information may be outdated given my last training cut-off in January 2022.
