ICC Awards 2011 was announced by ICC. But does these winners were the real contenders of these awards???
Spirit of Cricket award was given to India cricket captain Dhoni for recalling Ian Bell after controversial run-out during the Trent Bridge Test. When Bell was run out Dhoni didn’t call at that time but soon after Tea (after discussing it with team management and to escape humiliation) he called up Ian Bell so Dhoni was not the right choice.
