Champions Trophy – Semi Final 1
Australia vs England
How wronged can wronged be?
I know I have the habit of jumping the gun a little bit. All right a lot. But most of the times I am true. The some other times I am wrong, I am really wrong. Lets take a look.
I wrote a while back in this post:
Bresnan was man enough to contribute 31 unbeaten runs. Probably the most important of his career. With ODI’s counting it’s last few days on earth, it could well be his best ever.
How wrong was I? A lot wrong, I must admit. I was wrong on both the counts. Tim Bresnan scored 80 today, so I was wrong there.
ODIs aren’t dead. Far from it. They seem to have found a way out – conduct short, exciting tournaments involving top teams ONLY and any format will thrive.
So here am I, admitting my mis-assessment. Apologies. But who knows, ODIs might still die, and personally, I hope they do. There is also this added advantage of ODIs are retired – No one can break Sachin’s records. Awesome!
