Morgan uncertain if he will play 2023 ODI World Cup

ENGLAND'S white-ball captain Eoin Morgan expects to play in next year's Twenty20 World Cup but he is not certain he will be part of the team's title defence at the 50-overs World Cup in 2023, the 35-year-old said.

Morgan will lead England at this year's T20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates and Oman, with the team set to take on defending champions West Indies in their tournament opener on Saturday (23) in Dubai.


The next edition of the T20 World Cup will be played in Australia next year, followed by the one-day edition of the world showpiece in India in 2023.

England won the 50-overs title for the first time in 2019 when the Morgan-led team defeated New Zealand in a memorable final at Lord's.

"I certainly see myself this time next year playing, hopefully, a really strong role in another T20 World Cup," Morgan told the BBC on Thursday.

"That is the expectation I have put on myself.

"I am not sure about another two (tournaments). Obviously, results determine how well you do and how often you are kept on. But certainly, my hunger and determination are as strong as ever."

Morgan has played 243 one-day and 102 T20 matches for England.

India to stage centenary Commonwealth Games in Ahmedabad in 2030


AHMEDABAD will host the 2030 Commonwealth Games, marking 100 years since the first edition was held in Hamilton, Canada. The confirmation came on Wednesday after the Commonwealth Sport General Assembly in Glasgow ratified the choice, following a recommendation from the executive board.

The Indian city, also called Amdavad, was selected ahead of Abuja, Nigeria. India had earlier submitted a formal letter of intent to the International Olympic Committee to host the 2036 Summer Olympics.
