ICC World Cup 2019: Fans, and the kaleidoscope of colours

The ICC World Cup 2019 has seen some exciting matches, where fate dwindled like the pendulum in grandfather's clock. The on field actions are laced with drama and tension, and the twelfth man of a side, the fans have added a dash of colour to the canvas of World Cup. They have jumped in jubilation, they have cried in despair. Innovative banners have been created, slogans of encouragement have been written. While we admire the players and their heroics, let us look at the fans, without whom the game is nothing but an empty fair
