Former England captain and right-handed batsman, Kevin Pietersen [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Pietersen] took a dig at English captain, Eoin Morgan after their defeat against Australia at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/cricket/icc-cricket-world-cup-2019/] on Tuesday at the Lord’s. The English skipper failed to perform for his team for the second consecutive match as England suffered their third loss at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. The hosts lost their second consecutive match against Australia as they were defeated by 64 runs. Eoin Morgan could manage to score only 4 runs as his team failed to chase a total of 285 runs. Kevin Pietersen takes a dig at Eoin Morgan [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-9-13.jpeg] Kevin Pietersen took an aim at Eoin Morgan as he suggested that the left-handed batsman was scared of Mitchell Starc when he came out to bat at 15-2 during the fourth over. Kevin Pietersen took Twitter to criticize Eoin Morgan as a weak captain. He wrote, “The England captain stepping to the square leg when Starc bowled his first delivery to him made me think England could have a little problem over the next week or so. I hope not, but I’ve not seen a captain show such a weakness for a while…” Kevin Pietersen takes a dig at Eoin Morgan [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-8-14.jpeg] England was struggling when Eoin Morgan came into the crease to bat. The team needed their captain to step up for them and guide the innings. However, Morgan could not hold his wicket for long and put his team into more trouble as the scoreboard read 25 for 3 after his wicket. Eoin Morgan was struggling against Mitchell Starc as suggested by Kevin Pietersen. It was the short ball which did the job for Starc as he took the wicket of Morgan. The short ball kept climbing for Morgan. Eoin Morgan was hastened by the pace and was in an uncomfortable position. However, he still went for the pull and edged the ball which went straight to Pat Cummins at long leg. Kevin Pietersen takes a dig at Eoin Morgan [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-7-15.jpeg] The World Cup favourites, England now has 8 points in 7 matches and will have to win at least one match in their last two matches in order to stay alive at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. However, the road ahead will not be easy for the hosts as they will face India and New Zealand in their last two matches.

ICC Cricket World Cup History
The ICC Cricket World Cup is a competition that takes place every four years.?The tournament is considered one of the world's most viewed sporting events. The first ever ICC Cricket World Cup took place in 1975 in England. Interestingly, the inaugural ICC Women's Cricket World Cup was held two years before the Men's, namely in 1973.
There are no restrictions for playing in the World Cup, but the top eight ranked teams gain automatic qualification, while the remaining seats are fought for in a qualifier tournament. A total of 20 teams have played in an ICC Cricket World Cup game, but the number of participants has dwindled over the years.
For the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019, only 10 teams will participate, including two qualifiers. This is a far cry from 14 teams that took part in 2015.
The next ICC Cricket World Cup will be held in 2023 for men. In addition to that, the next ICC Women's Cricket World Cup will be held in 2021.
