Men’s ODI WC: England's Senior Players, Coach Shirked Responsibility By Not Facing Media Ahead Of Netherlands Match, Says Morgan

ODI World Cup: Eoin Morgan, England’s 2019 Men’s ODI World Cup winning captain, said senior players and head coach Matthew Mott shirked their responsibility by not facing the media ahead of their match against Netherlands.

With the 33-run defeat to Australia ending their hopes of reaching the semi-finals of the ongoing tournament, England fielded assistant coach Carl Hopkinson for the customary pre-match press conference on Tuesday, which drew sharp criticism from Morgan.

"I was surprised and shocked by it (seeing Hopkinson put up for media duties). When you sit in a meeting as a captain or a head coach you make those decisions in the side and when things are going wrong, you need absolute clarity and direction."
