Morgan hasn't had best of the time in cricket field recently. Morgan had a tough last IPL season with the bat failing to score big runs for his team. He scored 133 runs in 17 matches with the dismissal average of 11.08. His lowest in the IPLs history.
In recent England tour of Netherlands, he failed to score big in 3 match ODI series.
