Eoin Morgan Might Retire From International Cricket This Week And More Cricket News

The World Cup-winning captain of England, Eoin Morgan, is reportedly considering his future lately and may declare his exit from international cricket this week. In the recently concluded ODI series against the Netherlands in Amstelveen, the 35-year-old struggled with form and fitness issues before withdrawing from the third game citing a groin injury.


While the first ODI of the three-match series saw Morgan getting dismissed for a golden duck, the second game witnessed him walking back to the pavilion for a seven-ball duck. His form has been deteriorating recently, and his performance graph has seen a terrible low. That might also have been one of the reasons behind no franchise picking him during the IPL 2022 mega auctions.


Indian opener Mayank Agarwal has been added to India’s Test squad after Rohit Sharma tested positive for the Covid-19 virus. There is no certainty of Rohit’s availability for the upcoming Test match against England which begins on July 1. He is under isolation and the team still expects him to recover completely before the clash.


If the 35-year-old is not able to play the final Test match of the five-match series, and with KL Rahul out of the squad owing to his injury, Agarwal might find a place as the opening batter in the playing XI. The inconclusive series is led by India 2-1 and the team will further look to either win the game or at least manage a draw to clinch the trophy.


The T20I series opener between Ireland and India at the Village saw the Men in Blue chase down the host’s total of 108 runs with quite an ease as Deepak Hooda, Ishan Kishan and Hardik Pandya starred with the bat. Skipper Pandya has now spoken on the absence of opener Ruturaj Gaikwad in India’s batting innings.


The game was shortened to 12 overs per side due to the interruption from rain. After restricting the Irish batters to a total of 108 runs in their 12 overs, the Indian batters took center stage.
