I think the last warning served its purpose. I hope the Indian cricket team continue its form all the way to world cup glory.

Mean while the cricketing world has witnessed shocks beyond imagination. When Hansie Cronje died in an air crash, I was in awe because I still held him in high respect in spite of his involvement in the match fixing scandal. But when I heard about Woolmer’s death, I had my foot in my mouth! They both complimented each other well. South Africa’s phenomenal success in cricket was largely due to the coachmanship of Woolmer . I still remember how they first introduced wireless headphones in cricket during the World Cup in 1999 so that the coach can directly interact with the captain in the field. He is also credited with the introduction of technology, more specifically laptops, for coaching sessions.
