T20 World Cup: Morgan Backs Willey To Play Ahead Of Jordan In The Final If Wood Is Unavailable

By IANS News November 12, 2022 • 14:07 PM View: 670

Eoin Morgan, the former England captain who led the side to the 2019 ODI World Cup at home, said he would pick David Willey over Chris Jordan to play in the final of Men's T20 World Cup if Mark Wood is unavailable for the title clash due to general body stiffness.

Jordan had replaced an injured Wood in England's 10-wicket win over India in the second semifinal at Adelaide Oval on Thursday. He clinched figures of 3/43 in his four overs and was praised immensely by captain Jos Buttler on bowling three of the last five overs.
