Kiwi cricket fans across the nation are feeling the heartbreak after New Zealand's agonising World Cup final defeat to England at Lord's - and none more so than Jonty Taylor, son of Black Caps batting maestro Ross.
The Black Caps went down to England after tying twice - first after 50 overs a side, and then in the dramatic Super Over - with the hosts winning the World Cup on boundary countback.

As messages of support and praise for the team's efforts poured in on social media, Black Taylor shared a heartfelt photo with his children.
But, while Taylor shared a smile with proud daughter Mackenzie, it was son Jonty's expression that stole the hearts of Kiwis.
