Chairman of cricket board’s selection committee Chandu Borde today said India had won the war and not a mere battle by defeating England at Lord’s and praised captain Saurav Ganguly for his effective handling of the team.

“The Indian team had been winning battles all along but they won the war when they beat England on Saturday,” Borde said.

Borde, who witnessed the match at Lord’s before returning home today, said that he was delighted to be present during the final and share the joy with the players.

“In fact, just before the match I had a pep talk with Kaif and other youngsters in the team and I am happy they did the unbelievable.”
