Captain of the England team Eoin Morgan after bagging the maiden crown for his country in the ICC World Cup 2019 is winning hearts once again after he played a game of cricket with an Afghan family.

The 32-year-old star batsman had turned to Twitter with a picture from the game where he struck a pose alongside the Afghan family.

“On the walk home from dinner this evening I was asked to play a game with this lovely Afghan family.. #ThePowerofsport,” he had stated.

Soon after, the captain’s kind gesture was also greatly appreciated by Afghanistan captain and spin sensation Rashid Khan who replied to the post saying: “Legend.”

Morgan had recently become the guiding light to England’s first historic World Cup win against New Zealand.
