TIL Desk Sports/ England’s white-ball captain Eoin Morgan has retired from international cricket with immediate effect, the England and Wales Cricket Board said on Tuesday. During his 13-year international career, the 35-year-old had led England to the 2019 ODI World Cup title — their first World title in the 50-overs format. He was also part of the England team that won the 2010 T20 Cricket World Cup in the Caribbean.
Morgan is the all-time leading run-scorer and most-capped player for England men in both ODI and T20I matches. During his seven-year tenure as ODI captain, he guided England to number one in the ICC world rankings, including notable series victories against all the major nations.
In his record-breaking 225 ODI caps, he scored 6,957 runs, including 13 hundreds at an average of 39.75. In his 126 matches as Captain, Morgan oversaw 76 victories with a win percentage of 60 per cent, the best win record by any England ODI Captain in the history of the game.
He captained the Men’s T20I side on 72 occasions, equal to India’s Mahendra Singh Dhoni as the most in T20 international cricket. In all, he represented England on 115 occasions scoring 2,458 runs. As a Test cricketer, he won 16 caps over a three-year period scoring two centuries.
