Collingwood lead England to their first ICC title

England have never been the pioneer in One-day cricket, let alone in the shortest format of the game. In 2010, the World T20 was held in the West Indies was England's first major ICC title that they won. Under Paul Collingwood, lead by the flamboyant Kevin Pietersen in the batting front, England ousted their arch-rivals Australia to race to the title.
