Brand Ambassadors of 2011 World Cup Cricket

Ajmal Sheshad was ruled out of the rest of tournament just before the start . Many thought , he wouldnt be flying alone .

England had dig the hole for themselves . Overnight performances may still not help them make the cut to Quarters . That just would be biggest shame to the World Cup .

Ask Thomas Alva Edison how hard it is to invent something . England invented Cricket . They sure didn want 50 over format to give way to 20 over format eventhough their only success in Global events is in that very format .

Strauss has been the best captain thus far . They have fought through thick n thin . They never looked liked losing any of the games . They never looked like winning them either .

England and Ireland have been Brand Ambassadors of this World Cup .

Winning is something . But not giving up is something else .   They have fought till the death and put together some very interesting games . Now , who said Assoicates have no say in World Cups ?? Take that ICC .

In difference with England , Ireland are now out of this World Cup . But take nothing away from them . They have given every team a run for the money at various stages of the game . Given the exposure to international cricket they could only improve.

Comparing these two european countries is very fitting . Ireland's success in a way is England's success too (Ed Joyce , Eoin Morgan ) . After every successful world cup , Ireland lose players to England . One player who might play test cricket in future for england could be "George Dockrell" . 18 years , High class .Full Stop


As Swanny said in the post match interview "They might be the Pakistan of 1992" . They well might be . If they do acheive the ultimate glory we sure could expect some "Sprinkler Dance" at Mumbai too .
