This summer’s men’s white-ball matches will all have Eoin Morgan on the commentary team. Morgan led England to the World Cup victory. The veteran batter will now be flaunting the commentary outfit after retiring.
In a three-match T20I series that will be followed by the same number of ODIs, India will present a tough test for the home team. This season marks the start of Morgan’s commentary run after retirement.
On June 28, Morgan declared his retirement from international cricket (Tuesday). In addition to his obvious leadership abilities, the left-handed batsman made a significant contribution to England’s cricket team with his bat. The Three Lions, led by Morgan, defeated New Zealand in one of the most exciting cricket matches ever seen to win the 2019 World Cup.
Within five minutes of the news of his retirement, SKY announced that the World Cup-winning captain would join the commentary team.
Injuries have made a huge impact on Morgan’s thoughts of quitting the beautiful game of cricket. Morgan is now 35 years old and his recent injuries are causing some fitness issues to which he decides to put an end to his successful career.
Recently, Morgan was sent off on duck out and it happened not just once but twice the ironic moment to this thought is that Morgan was sent off twice on 0 by the Netherland bowlers who were smashed by every other player from the England team.
England scored their highest score in the One Day International format of 498 runs in the same series. Eoin’s “groin issue” is the recently reported injury situation faced by the England batsman.
Morgan ended his beautiful career with nearly 7000 runs and 13 centuries for the English side. Morgan has played 225 One Day Internationals and 115 T20Is in which he performed well enough to score almost 2500 runs.
