5 current limited overs specialists who've found it tough in Test cricket

#3 Eoin Morgan

Eoin Morgan

The dynamic Irishman is often considered one of the most lethal batsmen in the limited-overs format of the game. Eoin Morgan has been pivotal to England's rise to the pinnacle of the ODI rankings as well their first-ever World Cup triumph.

Morgan's range of shots and beguiling playing style make him a world-class player in ODI cricket, but the same isn't the case in the longer format of the game. In 16 Tests Morgan has scored a paltry 700 runs; on the other hand, he is the leading run-scorer for England in 50-over cricket, having slammed more than 7000 runs.

If we scrutinize his playing style across formats, we'd realize there is a major difference in the way Morgan approaches them. The swashbuckling left-hander looks utterly comfortable in the limited-overs format but the same can't be said about the longer format of the game; his natural playing style has somewhat hindered his progress on the Test front.

The last time Morgan featured in a Test match was in 2012 when England squared off against Pakistan in UAE.
