England finally win in their game.

I have always marvelled at the English for inventing Cricket. So many rules. So unlike many other games. It's their national game. Englad is known for their love of traditions. It's irony that the first time that they have won an ICC tournament ever is the 20-20 world cup. Nevertheless it's a great achievement. It's good for cricket. England has long been getting distanced from cricket. Hopefully , this will be a revival. The best part is, they deserved to win this. They played the best cricket. Paul Collingwood of all people deserved it very much. An underrated cricketer, he has been the gentle, calm soldier of the game. Such people deserve the success they get. Very happy for him. Aussies will take this hard. This will raise questions about the mettle of Michael Clarke. A certain Ricky Ponting leading this side, and the story could have been different. But this moment belongs to England. Deservedly so. As for Indian hockey, its been a anticlimax in that they have won the Sulthan Azlan Shah hockey but they are joint winners with South Korea. Rain washed out the game. Anyways, it was a good show. SO what's next? The World Cup of Football. My favourite sports event. Yes, even more than world cup of cricket. Surprised?
