If host England ‘manages’ to pull off a maiden World Cup win on home turf, then a couple of things will follow like poetry in motion.
For starters, a few players will likely be knighted and heading that list will be the Irishman responsible for England’s white ball turn around, Eoin Morgan. Secondly, Britain’s parliament for a short period of time, wouldn’t be consumed with the new Prime minister’s role in BREXIT.
And, let’s be honest, the scenes mentioned above make for a remarkable painting.
But can England really do it?
As a keen cricket follower, I really do think they can; England is playing a fearlessly, successful brand of cricket that I don’t think English teams to come can emulate.
