Eoin Morgan first player from England to play 100 T20Is

In the third T20 of the five-match series between India and England, visiting skipper Eoin Morgan became just the fourth cricketer to play 100 T20 internationals.

Eoin Morgan has been the backbone of England’s limited overs side for years now and is looked up to by his team-mates. Many believe that England’s ODI and T20 sides are moulded in Morgan’s character, giving them the fearless nature that they are known now far.

Morgan, seen here in the third T20 during a photo shoot and in game, has also enjoyed plenty of success as England’s captain. He led the side that won the 2019 ODI World Cup, the first time England won the tournament. He would dearly love to add a T20 World Cup to his kitty as well.
