Did I say this before?

Well, well, well, what a day at Trent Bridge.

Thank goodness for a courageous man!

Was Ian Bell out? Yes.

Did Ian Bell make a schoolboy error? Yes.

Did MS Dhoni do the right thing? Yes.

Three out of three ain't bad? Well let's get into the nitty gritty shall we.

There will be many our there, especially in India who will call for their captain's head on a pole. He was weak they will say, he was wrong they will say.

Firstly let me ask the question what would have happened if this was Sachin in Mumbai who had endured such a thing? It would never happen I hear you say. But what if?

What MS Dhoni showed today is that the game of cricket supersedes all those earthly common frailties of greed and control. It shows us that there is a better way. It is an example to our children of how to win or lose. I don't think that Sir Alex would ever react like that and that is why football teaches young children that it is all about greed.

Cricket and in particular today MS Dhoni have shown children that it is a game and it should be played in a certain way. He showed children there is a better way.

And it reminds me of the words of Kipling in the poem.......If you ....
