Morgan turned a struggling team into one where aggression and risk was rewarded, and crucially where failure did not automatically mean punishment. A shrewd captain and master accumulator, Morgan has been replaced as skipper by wicketkeeper/opener Jos Buttler, while also gone from the side is prolific opener Jason Roy.
LONDON : England's limited overs teams underwent their own reset long before the test side had even dreamed of "Bazball" but they go into the T20 World Cup in Australia on the heels of another revamp following the retirement of captain Eoin Morgan.
England secured a comprehensive 6-wicket win over Pakistan in their opening T20 World Cup 2022 warm-up game. While it was across all departments that Pakistan stumbled, their performance on the field can be summed up by one missed run-out that left Pakistan all-rounder Shadab Khan absolutely fuming. Shadab, who was the captain on the day for Pakistan, wasn't happy seeing players lose their focus on the field and let a big opportunity to dismiss one England batter go begging.
Skipper Jos Buttler was particularly happy with the return of Liam Livingstone (ankle) and Chris Jordan (finger) from injuries. "It's great to see Liam Livingstone back on the field after a significant injury, and get four overs from Chris Jordan as well," Buttler said.
England and India are among the teams bidding to take Australia’s crown as the Twenty20 World Cup begins on Sunday.
White-ball specialist Liam Livingstone has been given the chance to shine with the red ball for England's Test tour to Pakistan as opener Alex Lees was dropped from the 15-man squad announced on Wednesday. Livingstone has never played an international at Test level and has not even featured in first-class cricket for over a year, increasingly focusing his efforts on the shorter forms after becoming a mainstay of England's limited-overs side.
(Reuters) - Lancashire duo Keaton Jennings and Liam Livingstone have been called up to the England squad for their three-test tour of Pakistan starting in December, but veteran fast bowler Stuart Broad misses the trip.
All the top cricket teams are in the final stages of preparation for the 2022 T20 World Cup, which starts later this month. Among the teams which are likely frontrunners for the title, England are in top form. The Jos Buttler-led team is currently touring Australia and defeated the hosts by eight runs on Sunday. Buttler is back in his all-action role as captain, opening batsman and wicketkeeper as power-packed England prepare to launch their bid for Twenty20 World Cup glory. The white ball star missed his side's recent 4-3 series win in Pakistan with a calf injury and in his absence Alex Hales and Phil Salt impressed at the top of the batting order, with Salt taking the gloves.
