Morgan to miss fourth ODI
England captain Eoin Morgan will miss Friday’s fourth one-day international against Pakistan in Nottingham after being suspended for a slow over-rate offence, the International Cricket Council said on Wednesday.
Match referee Richie Richardson imposed the suspension on Morgan after England were ruled to be two overs short after time allowances during their victory over Pakistan in the third ODI in Bristol on Tuesday.
The ICC said it was Morgan’s second “minor over-rate offence” after being previously found guilty during the Barbados ODI against the West Indies in February.
Morgan was also fined 40% of his match fee, while the players were hit with a 20% fine.
