Eoin Morgan Injury Update: Eoin Morgan Has Been Ruled Out the IND vs ENG ODI Series with Hand Injury

Eoin Morgan will miss the remainder of the India-England ODI series in Pune. The injury he suffered from last ODI forced him to leave the competition. Sam Billings will be missed in the next ODI.

Injury Updates

England captain Eoin Morgan sustained sustaining a split webbing between his thumb and index finger during the first ODI against India on Tuesday. It eventually required four stitches. The captain went through a fielding drill during training at the MCA Stadium on Thursday before declaring about his unfitness. He said, “I had the hand re-dressed before the start of training today but it quickly became apparent that I found myself protecting the injury and getting into the wrong positions to catch the ball.”

Morgan added, “There’s nowhere to hide on the field in international cricket these days, especially in limited-over formats so it didn’t require any great thought to make myself unavailable. It was a freak injury and it’s extremely frustrating but there’s nothing I can do about it. It’s now just a case of letting the cut heal.”
