Eoin Morgan, the former England captain who led the team to victory in the 2019 Cricket World Cup, believes that the current team led by Jos Buttler has the determination and motivation to defend their title.
Morgan highlighted the honesty within the England changing room as one of their greatest strengths over the past eight to nine years. He noted that when the team doesn't meet their expectations, they address the issues promptly. Morgan mentioned that England has a history of bouncing back quickly from setbacks in previous World Cups, and the strong motivation to perform well and win more trophies is a driving force under Captain Jos Buttler.
Following their nine-wicket loss to New Zealand in the opening match, England is playing their second World Cup match against Bangladesh.
Eoin Morgan is credited with transforming England's white-ball cricket by shifting the team's style from orthodox to an aggressive approach, which led to a successful campaign in the 2019 ODI World Cup.
Jos Buttler has carried forward Morgan's legacy in the English team, winning 14 out of 28 ODI matches as captain, with a 50 percent win record in ODIs.
In the match being played at Dharamshala in Himachal Pradesh, Bangladesh's skipper Shakib al Hasan won the toss and elected to bowl first against England. Bangladesh won their campaign opener against Afghanistan by six wickets, while England lost their opener to New Zealand by nine wickets.
