I am a better player now, claims http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Eoin-Joseph-Gerard-Morgan-c56032 – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c749’s middle-order batsman, Eoin Morgan, believes that he has improved as a batsman over the last couple of years and expressed that he is keen to make a comeback to the Test team by doing well in limited-over cricket.
Morgan, 25, is one of those English cricketers who possess the ability to change the course of a game within a short span of time. Since making his debut for England in 2009, the left-hander has earned the reputation of a match-winner,
especially in the game’s shorter versions.
The stylish player has a couple of Test centuries under his belt but he is yet to prove his mettle in five-day cricket, although he is hopeful of having a long Test career as well.
After a pathetic series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/United-Arab-Emirates-c3033 earlier this year, the Ireland-born batsman was dropped from the Test team. However, he continues to do well in One Day International (ODI) cricket as well as in the
T20 format.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Morgan-c77707 understands that he needs to score big runs in county cricket as well as in the limited-over internationals to regain his Test place. The left-hander claims that he has learned from his mistakes and vows to prove his credentials
at the game’s ultimate stage.
Talking about the on-going ODI series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757, Morgan is hopeful of carrying the burden of the team’s batting in Kevin Pietersen’s absence.
"When anybody gets dropped they need to show that they're in substantial form and that they've scored enough runs to justify their position in the side. They need to show they've come back a better player," said Morgan. "Looking back
I'm a better player than I was at the start of the year. I've proven that in spurts over the summer. Hopefully again I can do that again during this ODI series against South Africa."
The aggressive batsman expressed that the whole England side is geared up for the upcoming ICC World T20 2012 and the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 Champions Trophy 2013, which will be played in England.
"The focus as a side to is to progress up the rankings and build towards the World Cup and Champions Trophy next year," he added.
