London (ANI) : Anglo-Irish cricketer Eoin Morgan wants to win the 2015 World Cup for England.

Morgan, who is already a World Twenty20 trophy winner, is setting his sights on the main 50-over trophy as part of a team he thinks can succeed in Australia in 2015 despite their recent 5-0 drubbing in India.

The Mirror quoted Morgan, as saying: “We’ve got half an eye on the next World Cup -definitely. If you’ve got good players, they will improve every time they play and we’ve shown we can do well in most places, it is just in India where we struggle in one-day cricket.”

“If we look after the here and now and win series as we move forward then we’ll put ourselves in a position to win it when we get there,” he added.

Morgan can call himself one of the senior men in the England dressing room, even though he only made his debut in 2009.

He had an international grounding with Ireland before that and his performances have made him not only the world No. 1 T20 batsman but the first name down on the team sheet in coloured clothing.

Add to that a one-off game as captain in Dublin last summer and it is easy to see why England instantly become a far better team with him than without, and why his absence from the India one-day tour with a shoulder injury was such a huge blow.

Morgan played at No. 6 last summer following Collingwood’s retirement, and a second Test ton plus three 70s in seven matches was a fair return.

But he is not satisfied with that and with 15 Tests in 2012 he is aiming for more.

He added: “The opportunity was there to establish myself in the Test arena but it has been a slow process.

Mumbai, May 15 2011 [IANS] : Bottom placed Deccan Chargers put up an inspiring bowling performance to humble the formidable Mumbai Indians by 10 runs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) here Saturday. Chargers, restricted to 135 for six, bowled their heart out to contain Mumbai Indians to 125 for eight on a wicket that offered assistance to the pacers as well as the slower bowlers.

Ishant Sharma (2/30) and Amit Mishra (1/18), spurred by their comeback in the Indian one-day team for the West Indies tour, bowled with precision and were the catalyst in the upset win.

Anand Rajan (3/27), playing his first match of the IPL, picked up two wickets in his second over that included the prized scalp of master blaster Sachin Tendulkar (37).

Chargers, already out of contention for the top four spot, are at ninth place in the table with eight points from 12 games while Mumbai Indians are third with 16 points from the same number of matches.

Mumbai Indians, with their famed batting line-up, were expected overcome the modest target with ease but Sharma bowled brilliantly upfront to make it difficult for the home team.

Ambati Rayudu (2) gifted Sharma his wicket while attempting a fancy flick that eventually led to his stumps being castled. Sharma, however, earned the next one as he bowled a peach of a delivery to have Rohit Sharma (4) caught behind.

Barring Tendulkar, the Mumbai batsmen struggled against some quality bowling by the Chargers. If Sharma created problems at the top, Mishra and Pragyan Ojha (0/16) did not give easy runs and stifled the batsmen.

Needing 60 runs off the last 30 balls, Tendulkar and Tirumalasetti Suman (14) tried to up the pace but perished in the same over.

Earlier, the Chargers were off to a dreadful start with lethal Lasith Malinga removing England’s Michael Lumb (0) of the second ball of the match.

The batsmen found scoring tough for major part of the innings and wickets falling at regular intervals only added to the Charger’s woes.

But Shikhar Dhawan (27 not out) along with Mishra (18) brought life into the match by smashing 30 runs off the last 10 balls to take the team to a respectable total. Captain Kumar Sangakkara scored 27 off 28 balls at the top.

Mumbai, April 5 : India’s outgoing coach Gary Kirsten said Tuesday that Sachin Tendulkar is the greatest sporting model he has ever met.

The 43-year-old South African, in his farewell media briefing, said it was an honour for him to work with Tendulkar for three years.

“It has been a great privilege to coach the Indian team. It has been an honour to be alongside Sachin Tendulkar. He is the greatest sporting role model I have ever met. The passion for the game he has is unparalleled,” said Kirsten.

“We achieved both our goals to be the World Champions and the number one Test side. The way the players handled the weight of expectations of the entire country was remarkable,” he said. (IANS)
