The India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni was awarded the ICC spirit of cricket award after agreeing to allow England batsman Ian Bell to continue batting after he had been run out in the second test at Trent Bridge this year.
Bell left his crease and headed for the pavilion after mistakenly thinking he had hit the ball over the boundary off the last ball before tea. Instead it was still in play, the bails were removed and Bell was correctly given out.
During the interval and after a request from the England team, Dhoni withdrew the appeal.
