IPL 2021 Chris Morris: Lal Sangakkara angry with 16 crore Morris
Last Updated:
IPL 2021 Most expensive purchase ever at the IPL auctions Chris Morris failed to impress says Sangakkara. Sangakkara said, ‘Chris Morris has performed well in the first part of the tournament. He has consistently disappointed in the UAE stage. Of course, it should be understood by him.
But Morris could not do anything against so much money. Royal Challengers Bangalore conceded 50 runs in four overs on Wednesday in the second phase of the ongoing IPL in the UAE. Now it is difficult to get a chance in his eleventh! So far Morris has taken 14 wickets with the ball. But his performance with the bat is poor. Scored 67 runs in 6 innings of 10 matches.
For the same team, Mustafizur Rahman appeared in fear of the opponent with the ball in hand. Without him, Rajasthan cannot think of forming an XI. So far, Mustafiz has played in every match in two seasons. But 16 crores Morris is completely ineffective in the second phase. Rajasthan Royals director Kumar Sangakkara expressed his disappointment with him for not performing as per expectations.
After the 7-wicket loss to Royal Challengers, Sangakkara said, ‘Morris has performed well in the first part of the tournament. He has consistently disappointed in the UAE stage. Of course, he should understand it too. Gave 50 runs in four overs against Bangalore. His last over was the turning point. We were knocked out of the match there. In the next match, we will carefully prepare the XI. The cricketers will be placed in the eleven after judging the strength of the opponent.
The South African all-rounder has come of age. His best time is behind him. Kumar Sangakkara made it clear that he did not live up to the team’s expectations from Morris. It is clear from this that Chris Morris’ IPL career is going to end not only in this phase of IPL, but maybe in the next phase as well. Apart from this, there is no doubt that the strength of the first-time champions has been halved due to the absence of three English cricketers Ben Stokes, Buttler and Archer from Rajasthan.
