Brexit wins as Britain votes to leave European Union in historic referendum

The United Kingdom has voted by 52 % to 48 % to leave the European Union after 43 years in a historic referendum. According to a newspaper London and Scotland voted strongly to stay in the Union but the remaining vote has been done against it which mainly contains the north of England. Voters in Wales and the English shires have backed Britain exit from the EU in large numbers.

The decision launches what will be years of negotiations over trade, business and political links with the European Union, which will shrink to a 27-nation bloc. Meanwhile because of the referendum, the pound fell to its lowest level against the dollar since 1985 as the markets reacted to the results. Referendum turnout was higher than at last year's general election.

Is English cricket loosing great players with unknown reasons

Hello friends,

From last two months i am reading and focusing on English cricket.
I don't know the basic reason of their board's selection but English cricket is loosing the valuable players from their line up.

I am huge fan of Graeme Swann and Kevin Peterson but now they will never play any match with their national teams, that is totally heart-breaking because they were the fighters of their national team. Both players quit the cricket world with some unknown reasons with their English cricket board.

As we have seen the farewell of great players like Sachin Tendulkar, Ricky Ponting, Adam Gilchrist, Sourav Ganguli etc. but Kevin and Graeme don't get any farewell match.Kevin peterson will continue to play cricket,so he wanted to play cricket but English board is not considering his talent for upcoming T-20 world cup in Subcontinent.This seems that English cricket board is pressuring him to quit cricket.

I do not know what happens behind the close doors but the boards like English cricket board and Austarlia cricket board always pressurize great players to quit the cricket world without respecting their previous contribution to the country.
