The Urn has turned

Followed England on the internet onto a fine Ashes victory. The Urn has turned…. ran the headlines everywhere as England regained the Ashes after a thousand years. Witnessed the jubilant faces of my English colleagues. Realized that there was almost a generation of Englishmen who had not seen their team win the Ashes.
I have seen a team used to getting knocked off in the opening rounds of school cricket make it through to the semi finals beating bigges like Shardashram (btw thats Tendulkar’s school). Some matches went as close as one run victories but they won them all. And then when the year of glory was over the best player of the season got asked to sit out and concentrate on studies. He never played any cricket again and will always wonder of what could have been.


From what was to what could have been
