England's 2019 World Cup-winning captain Eoin Morgan brought the curtain down on his professional career after announcing retirement from all forms of cricket aged 36 on Monday.
Morgan, who retired from the international game last June, led England to 50-over World Cup glory on home soil and the top of the ODI and T20I rankings.
Morgan captained England in 126 ODIs and 72 T20Is, clinching 118 wins as skipper across the two formats.
"After much deliberation, I believe now is the right time to step away from the game that has given me so much over the years," Morgan said in a statement on Twitter.
"I will undoubtedly miss the adventure and challenges of playing professional cricket.
"Since my retirement from international cricket, I have been able to spend more time with my loved ones, and I look forward to being able to do so more and more in the future."
Morgan said he had been fortunate to have had the chance to travel the globe.
"Thanks to cricket, I have been able to travel the world and meet incredible people, many of whom I have developed lifelong friendships with," he said.
"Playing for franchise teams across the globe has given me so many memories that I will hold on to forever."
The Dublin-born Morgan made his ODI debut aged 16 with Ireland before he was called up by England in 2009.
"From moving to England in 2005 to join Middlesex, right up to the very end, playing for Paarl Royals in SA20, I have cherished every moment," Morgan said.
"As there are in every sportsperson's career, there have been highs and lows, but my family and friends have been by my side throughout it all. I would like to say a particularly special thank you to my wife, Tara, my family and close friends who have supported me unconditionally.
"I also must thank all my teammates, coaches, fans, and those behind the scenes who not only made me the player I became but have also made me the man I am today. Thanks to cricket, I have been able to travel the world and meet incredible people, many of whom I have developed lifelong friendships with. Playing for franchise teams across the globe has given me so many memories that I will hold onto forever.”
He played 248 ODIs and 115 T20Is, scoring 10,159 runs in total, and scored 700 runs in 16 Tests.
Morgan took charge of the T20 side in 2012 and ODI team in 2014 and was also part of the 2010 T20 World Cup-winning side.
