What..no knighthood?

Aha...here's the most important accolade that our team would have ever won in their lives

"I congratulate Sreesanth and the Indian team. I also congratulate Sourav Ganguly and V V S Laxman and Zaheer Khan," he said responding to sentiments expressed by the members over the team's performance in South Africa.
But but...wait...hold on....no congratulations for Chappell? Awww..come on..after what they did at the ODI loss...shouldn't they be passing motions to make him crown prince..or bharat ratna or some such? :-))

Seriously...do they really have time for all this in there?...really the mind boggles!

As a double aside...I'm really wondering what was the criteria for doling our the precious praises to only 4 individuals? I mean...really...technically...what was it? 50+ runs?? (hence Sachin missed out?)...5 wickets (but Kumble got as many as Khan?)..the mind boggles even more :-) Maybe I'm just delirious from the victory hangover...I'll come back later in the week..post out thoughts for the next test (notice the sounds being made in SA media about green-tops and this pitch not 'good enough' and all that..)
