Eoin Morgan could be set to announce his retirement from international cricket this week with England’s World Cup-winning captain understood to have been mulling over his future in recent days.
Former India all-rounder and head coach Ravi Shastri on Sunday shared a photo with legendary Pakistan pacer Wasim Akram from Lord's in London. The picture has since gone viral. "Shaz and Waz at @HomeOfCricket yesterday. Great to catch up," Shastri captioned the picture. Shastri and Akram were dressed in similar suits and wore complementary pink ties. Fans loved the picture of the two cricketing greats twinning in style. The photo garnered over 8,500 likes and 150 retweets since Shastri shared it.
There is more to this controlled aggression than belting the ball out of Trent Bridge. On a fibre-testing first day of the third Test, England’s bowling and fielding also increased in sharpness.
Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes have backed white-ball captain Eoin Morgan, describing him as a 'phenomenal leader'. Morgan led England to their first 50-over World Cup title in 2019, but he is himself without a half-century in one-day internationals and Twenty20s for almost a year. The batter registered two successive ducks against the Netherlands and missed Wednesday's game due to a tight groin, which England won by eight wickets and completed a 3-0 ODI clean sweep.
A lack of trophies in ICC events has been a criticism of the Indian men's cricket team for a while now. It was on this day, nine years ago that India last won honours at an ICC event, when MS Dhoni led the team to glory in the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy. ICC took to social media to remember the event on the anniversary of India's win against England in the final. "On this day in 2013, India added to their trophy tally as they beat England in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy," the ICC captioned the post.
England opening batter Jason Roy said the victory over Netherlands in the three-match ODI series was a "great benchmark" but his team should be prepared for the upcoming Test match against India. An unbeaten ton by Jason Roy and an unbeaten knock of 86 runs by Buttler helped England chase the target of 245 runs in just 30.1 overs and at a loss of only two wickets, at the VRA Cricket Ground, Amstelveen. With this win, England white-washed the three-match ODI series with a lead of 3-0.
After claiming the three-match ODI series against Netherlands, England stand-in skipper Jos Buttler expressed excitement about having great depth in his squad. An unbeaten ton by Jason Roy and an unbeaten knock of 86 runs by Buttler helped England chase the target of 245 runs in just 30.1 overs and at a loss of only two wickets at the VRA Cricket Ground, Amstelveen. With this win, England white-washed the three-match ODI series with a lead of 3-0. "We've played very well. Brilliant with the ball, good batting as well. There's a lot of cricket coming up which is very exciting, we have great depth in this squad, very excited," said Buttler in a post-match presentation.
England lost the ICC Champions Trophy final following a five-run defeat to India at Edgbaston, on this day in 2013.
