ECB starts investigation based on Jos Buttler and Eoin Morgan’s past tweets: Reports

Ollie Robinson’s suspension from all forms of international cricket has set the cat amongst the pigeons in the England camp, to some extent. After the controversy surrounding Robinson, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) started investigating an unnamed players’ offensive tweet. In the latest development, it’s been learned that Jos Buttler and Eoin Morgan are in trouble.

The ECB has now been investigating Morgan and Buttler’s past tweets. As per reports, Buttler and Morgan mimicked the Indians by calling them ‘Sir’ and allegedly mocked them. Morgan used the word ‘Sir’ for congratulating Morgan on May 13, 2018. On the very day, Buttler smashed an unbeaten 94 runs off 53 balls.

Brendon McCullum, the head coach of the Kolkata Knight Riders, also reacted to Morgan’s message. As per a report in telegraph.co.uk, Buttler has already deleted the tweets after criticism on social media. The report also added that the board will take a call on the English duo after going through the investigations.
