That is the dream of every aspiring sports senior staff to the commander of their country at the World Cup, no matter what the sport. That dream lasted - even if the team is England and you're Irish.
In a week when the Irish people celebrate indirectly been on a break with England, which followed on from the Easter holiday uprising, it is worth mentioning the Irish will captain England in cricket Twenty20 World Cup final on Sunday.
Owen Morgan (29), of Rush, Dublin company, for the first time expressed his desire to play for England when he was a teenager when he got a scholarship to Catholic University School (CUS) in Dublin to play cricket.
There was nothing unusual about this ambition, it is also not possible to play Test cricket for Ireland - although the national team on his way to get a chance in the coming years.
In these circumstances, the England test is in fact the British and Irish black cricket.
And achieved his ambition to play Test cricket, but the amounts specified (games for one day), where he excelled.
Now he is set to find himself on the brink of winning the World Cup when England leads to play the West Indies in the final match in Kolkata. And coached the team that faces Phil Simmons, the former director of Ireland - which is a measure of the extent of the Irish cricket has made over the past decade.
Morgan comes from four generations of cricketers. His parents were proud of Judy and Olivia and other family members in India, he is also watching the England team his son lived dangerously but grew in confidence as the tournament progress.
"They have the skills and it allows them to do is," Judy Morgan philosophy son. "That has not changed since he was playing cricket when he was in fifth or sixth. He kept very quiet. He was studying to be a very calm in difficult situations. These situations bring out the best him.
"This is the England team young too and they are on top of their game. I picked up on your skills and allows you to use your skills. It is no different from the Dublin football. I would like to know Jim Gavin, director of Dublin] very well."
"Strong mentally '
Judy Morgan says his son's ambition was always to be the best I can be and go where that led. "He's very strong mentally, which is more than is required at this present time," explains his father.
"It's hard for him, England leads very well, but he is proud of his team and his family as well. He does not forget where it came from."
Apart from one or two of comments on social media it does not sing the national anthem, he observed one on the Irish leadership of the England team badge. Lord Morgan critics by saying he had not sang the national anthem Irish either when he was playing for Ireland.
"We will be very patriotic, no better than Owen to be a respect for history," explains his father.
"This is something English-Irish, I think he went that day. We have a mutual respect for England, as they have done for us."
