| Eoin Morgan quits franchise cricket one year after announcing retirement from international cricket | | |  agencies
NEW DELHI, Feb 13: Eoin Morgan, England's lone 50-over World Cup-winning captain, on Monday announced retirement from all short-format franchise cricket with immediate effect, less than a year after he quit the international game The 36-year-old Morgan had retired from international cricket in July 2022 after a 16-year career -- first with Ireland and then with England -- but continued to play in short-format tournaments around the world.
"It is with great pride that I am announcing my retirement from all forms of cricket. After much deliberation, I believe that now is the right time to step away from the game that has given me so much over the years," Morgan said in a statement.
Morgan captained London Spirit to the Hundred's eliminator last year, was a losing finalist in the Abu Dhabi T10 with New York Strikers, and made seven appearances for Paarl Royals in the recently-concluded SA20.
He said he cherished every moment of his cricketing career.
"From moving to England in 2005 to join Middlesex, right up to the very end, playing for Paarl Royals in SA20, I have cherished every moment," said Morgan who made his England debut in an ODI in 2006.
