The 36-year-old Dublin-born batsman is best known for leading England to their first-ever World Cup victory in 2019 and is widely regarded as one of the greatest white-ball batsmen of his generation.<\/p>\n<p>Morgan made his international debut for Ireland in 2006 before switching to play for England in 2009. He was named as England\u2019s limited-overs captain in 2014 and quickly established himself as one of the most innovative and dynamic leaders in the game. Under his captaincy, England revolutionized the way limited-overs cricket was played, with a focus on aggressive and fearless batting that helped the team rise to the top of the rankings.<\/p>\n<p>The highlight of Morgan\u2019s career came in 2019 when England won the World Cup. He was instrumental in the team\u2019s success, scoring a crucial knock of 71 runs in the final against New Zealand to help England lift the trophy. The victory marked a new era in English cricket and helped to break the country\u2019s long-standing reputation as perennial underachievers in limited-overs cricket. Eoin Morgan won\u2019t be seen playing in the IPL or any other format of cricket now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The former England cricket captain Eoin Morgan has retired from all the forms of cricket. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":202,"featured_media":26025,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[3436,1040,1392,346],"class_list":["post-5461","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cricket","tag-cricket","tag-england-cricket-board","tag-england-cricket-team","tag-eoin-morgan"],"reading_time":"1 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5461","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/202"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5461"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5461\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26025"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5461"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5461"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5461"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
