Can an Irishman really lead England to that elusive World Cup title?

Eion Morgan

If host England ‘manages’ to pull off a maiden World Cup win on home turf, then a couple of things will follow like poetry in motion. 

For starters, a few players will likely be knighted and heading that list will be the Irishman responsible for England’s white ball turn around, Eoin Morgan. Secondly, Britain’s parliament for a short period of time, wouldn’t be consumed with the new Prime minister’s role in BREXIT. 

And, let’s be honest, the scenes mentioned above make for a remarkable painting. 

But can England really do it? 

As a keen cricket follower, I really do think they can; England is playing a fearlessly, successful brand of cricket that I don’t think English teams to come can emulate.
