ODI World Cup: Eoin Morgan, England’s 2019 ODI World Cup-winning captain, has stated that skipper Jos Buttler will be feeling sad and incredibly disappointed with the side’s exit from the 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup and added that the wicketkeeper-batter needs time to let the dust settle over a dismal campaign to plot the chart of resurgence.

Buttler was a member of the England team which made a shock league stage exit and was criticised for being way behind the modern ODI game. Under Morgan’s leadership, England embraced an attacking form of the game and transformed into leaders of the ODI format to win the 2019 World Cup at home, with Buttler being a key member of the triumph.

Much was expected of the Buttler-led England in their title defence in India, especially with Ben Stokes coming out of retirement. But six defeats in their first seven matches confirmed their early exit from the tournament.
