Top 5 Eoin Morgan Quotes
Trust obviously develops when you reinforce what you say you're going to do by actions.
When I first started playing international cricket, people around me started telling me what was being said. And you're never as good as anybody says you are. I try to stay quite logical about things.
In the 2015 World Cup, there was a drastic change in the move towards higher scores. Scores moved from 300 to 330 on average and that meant you had to change everyone's default mode.
When it comes to the changing room, belief is a huge thing. It's one of the strongest attributes I have ever had and it has stayed with me from the very beginning.
I tend to stay quite level. I make better decisions when I am level and I also take in good information when I am level, so it's important for me to stay in that head space.
