In the ongoing ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, the defending champions, England, face an unexpected challenge. Their former captain, Eoin Morgan, recently voiced concerns about the team appearing “unsettled.” However, all-rounder Liam Livingstone has stepped forward to dismiss any rumors of discord within the team’s dressing room.
Eoin Morgan, who guided England to World Cup glory in 2019, raised eyebrows with his recent statement. He expressed apprehension about the morale and confidence of the team currently led by Jos Buttler. Morgan’s words were candid as he stated, “There’s something within the team that is unsettled.” He remarked on the team’s performance and methods, highlighting the gap between expectations and reality.
In the face of Morgan’s concerns, Liam Livingstone has come forward to address the situation. The all-rounder emphasized that the team holds immense respect for Eoin Morgan but firmly refuted any suggestion of unrest in the dressing room. Livingstone’s words were clear as he stated, “Everybody in the dressing room has immense respect for Morgs (Morgan), but hand on heart, I can tell you nothing is going on in the dressing room. Everybody is working as hard to try and turn this around.”
