England's World Cup-winning skipper, Eoin Morgan has widely been appreciated for bringing the change in how England have approached ODI cricket or the shorter versions of the game in the past four years. Morgan has had a major role to play even as a crucial middle-order bat for his side as well as taking on the task of being the captain and leading from the front.

Playing at No.4, the Ireland-born cricketer has shown his ability to play the dual role of being the accumulator and even play as a hard-hitter and taking the attack to the opposition. In the World Cup, Morgan played the innings of the tournament against Afghanistan as he stroked a magnificent 148 in just 71 deliveries, including a record 17 sixes.

His splendid show at the World Cup might also help his cause in the upcoming IPL auction in December. In the past, the 33-year old has plied his trade for various IPL teams but has failed to get any regular opportunities in a season. After being out for favour since 2018, the England skipper might rightly fetch a hefty sum at this year's auction.
