England bring Home the Cricket World Cup

By | Investment News, Latest News, Uncategorized

Sunday 14th July was history in the making when England won the Cricket World Cup against New Zealand, at the iconic Lord’s cricket ground, known as the Home of Cricket.

Leading the team was England Captain Eoin Morgan, who plays county cricket for Middlesex where NLP Financial Management (NLPFM) sponsor his 2019 One Day Middlesex CCC shirt. The atmosphere in the cricket ground was electric with a massive audience watching it on TV, online and radio with the win resulting in a fantastic platform from which the sport can build.

With the England team having previously endured a number of embarrassing defeats on the world stage, Morgan has led a transformation of England’s One Day team since the last World Cup in 2015, and has successfully developed a new way of playing without fear, backing the players he wanted and leading the team to thrive in a positive environment. This is the atmosphere we have hopefully also created with the team here at NLPFM without of course taking any undue risks in regard to our investment selection and we are proud to be associated with Eoin Morgan as a leader.

The England victory can only be good for the quintessentially perceived British sport, which could now see a surge in interest, investment and participation from within schools and clubs throughout the UK. For the England and Wales Cricket Board and cricket fans across the country, Morgan and his team could not have done anything more!

Earlier this week England 1 Day Cricket Captain Eoin Morgan smashed the record for the number of sixes in a one-day international innings against Afghanistan, previously held jointly by Chris Gayle, AB de Villiers and Rohit Sharma.

NLP Financial Management are proud to sponsor the 2019 One Day Middlesex CCC shirt for Eoin, whose achievement came amid a career-best 148 from 71 balls.  Eoin himself expressed delight in his innings, especially when recovering from a painful back spasm experienced in his last game.

“It’s weird, very strange” were the words expressed by the England Captain after setting the new six-hitting record plus shattering through to a century with a strike rate of more than 200.* He told his team to play with no fear, highlighting his confidence and determination and truly led by example. ** Congratulations Eoin!
