A month long cricket fiesta ended with England being crowned worthy winners in the finals. The star-studded bowling lineup of Pakistan proved ineffective in denting any of England's chances of winning and lifting the trophy. The English batting prowess was too powerful for the Pakistani bowlers to penetrate through and yield immediate results. England now are the ICC ODI as well as the T20 champions. The rugged batting and bowling lineup are test proven and relied upon to fetch winning results. With comfortable ease they could demolish opponents in the quarters and semifinal stages and finally lift the coveted cup proves that they are new masters of white ball cricket. India has to make a thorough introspection in all compartments of the game despite having an array of spectacular players in the reserves. Credible speedsters like Umran Malik , spinner Y Chahal, batsman Sanju Samson were benched throughout the tournament, at least a chance or two should have been given to prove their mettle. The right reserve spare benchers should have been made available to replace non performers when required. Let the best selection prevail at the next World Cup.
