You're welcome, @metpoliceuk," AFP tweeted on Monday.[{258f30bf-6664-435e-bed0-51ffb54ca2b9:intradmin/1_ILJCoPS.JPG}]In another tweet, AFP mocked England all-rounder Ben Stokes, who originally hails from New Zealand. They also took a jibe at the Three Lion's first 50-over World Cup triumph.England had won the World Cup after the boundary-countback rule came into play as both normal 50-overs and super over ended as a tie."This gang previously stole a valuable cup from the hands of some of our NZ neighbours in London, followed by one of their red-headed members attempting to wrestle an antique urn away from its rightful owners during a visit to Headingly," AFP tweeted.[{6784e111-8d06-4ff1-b37c-2e7aed683537:intradmin/2_sYfqHU6.JPG}]They also mocked Ashes urn, tweeting "We are glad to see the urn is back where it belongs - even if the contents appear to be badly damaged by fire. Sorry @nzpolice, we understand that gang does not want to hand over the cup anytime soon".[{6fd82f85-62d9-4d3f-a0a3-16d86a3652d7:intradmin/3_xDRSYXv.JPG}]The 30-year-old Steve Smith, who scored 82 runs in the second innings of the fourth Test of the ongoing Ashes on Saturday, has been having an exceptional series.
