Piers Morgan has launched a scathing attack on England's cricket team following their crushing defeat to India in the T20 World Cup semi-final. The outspoken broadcaster singled out Chris Woakes, branding his bowling performance "a complete disaster" as England fell short in a high-stakes clash.
Morgan's Fiery Rant
The controversial pundit took to social media to vent his frustration after England's 68-run loss in Guyana. "Woakes was utterly woeful today," Morgan tweeted. "When your opening bowler goes for 40+ runs in his first three overs, you're basically handing the game to the opposition."
England's Batting Collapse
Morgan didn't spare England's batsmen either, calling their chase "pathetic" after they were bowled out for just 103 while chasing 172. "No fight, no technique, no clue against quality spin bowling," he fumed. "This was supposed to be our strongest format, yet we folded like a cheap suit."
India's Dominance
The match saw India's spinners dominate proceedings, with Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav sharing six wickets between them. Morgan acknowledged their brilliance: "You have to give credit where it's due - India's spinners were unplayable today. But that doesn't excuse our abject surrender."
Questions for Buttler
The broadcaster also questioned Jos Buttler's captaincy, particularly his decision to persist with Woakes after his expensive start. "When your plan A isn't working, you need a plan B," Morgan argued. "We looked completely out of ideas from the first over."
With England now eliminated from the tournament, Morgan predicted major changes ahead: "This should be the end of the road for several players. Time to blood some fresh talent who actually perform under pressure."
