Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won
the ICC Spirit of Cricket Award for his fine
gesture of calling back Ian Bell after the
England batsman was run out under
controversial circumstances during the
second Test at Trent Bridge in July. "While
the initial appeal and umpire decision were
correct to the letter of the law, the decision
by Mahendra and his team to withdraw the
appeal shows great maturity. To see players
and officials uphold the Great Spirit of
cricket, which has underpinned the game
for more than a century, is very special," ICC
Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat said.
