It is a shame Eoin Morgan isnt going to Bangladesh.Its a shame he wont be able to test the progress of his side against the team that defeated it (again) in the World Cup. Its a shame that Englands development could be jeopardised by a change of leadership and the loss of an experienced player. Its a shame Bangladesh cricket lovers wont be able to see him play. And, most of all, its a shame that those who seek to change the way we live with their threats and intimidation have had a minor win.But who knows what promises he made to himself - or those closest to him - after previous scares? And who can say better than him whether he would be able to give the focus required to succeed at the top level with the security distractions on his mind? Many of us go to Bangladesh - with tanks on our doorstep and snipers on our roof - with trepidation. And none of us have returned safely yet. Perhaps we should hold the conclusions over the wisdom of this tour?Morgan has always been very much his own man. It takes a certain courage to go against the flow and make a decision like this. The same sort of bloody-minded determination to do things his way that has helped reinvent England into an uncompromisingly aggressive limited-overs team despite a tradition of caution and percentage cricket.Since he took over as captain just ahead of the 2015 World Cup, Englands white-ball cricket has improved markedly. Yes, that tournament was gruesome for England, but he was dealt something of a hospital pass taking over less than two months before the tournament. Since June 2015, he has played a huge role in the emergence of a new side that has played with greater confidence and aggression and won 17 and lost 10 in ODI cricket.If that sounds modest, it is worth remembering how awful they were before then: in the previous 12 months they had won seven (including victories against Scotland and Afghanistan) and lost 16. They have lost only one ODI this English summer - and that with the series against Pakistan already won - and go into the 2017 Champions Trophy with confidence justifiably high. Morgan deserves a great deal of the credit for that.The decision does his long-term England prospects no good, though. If his replacement does well - and there is no reason the likes of Jonny Bairstow, Ben Duckett and Sam Billings will not excel if given the opportunity - then a recall cannot be guaranteed. Morgan is averaging 29.81 in ODIs this year; that isnt a strong position from which to be making this decision.But that is a cricketing decision. And thats the way it should be. His return should be defined entirely by a judgement over whether he is one of the best ODI batsmen available and whether he is the captain most likely to lead England to the World Cup. If the answer to either of those questions is yes, then he should slot straight back in. He should not be punished for taking the option offered by the ECB not to tour.The concern is that fault-lines opened now may cause problems later. It is clear, for example, that Andrew Strauss is disappointed with Morgans decision. And, perhaps, a little of Morgans natural authority as captain has eroded. A bond may be formed by those in Bangladesh and Morgan may struggle to win quite the level of respect and acceptance he had before. Thats not a moral issue, its a practical one.Equally, it is clear that some in the media now have Morgan in their sights. Right now that may seem of little importance. Over time, after defeats and if Morgan suffers a prolonged run of poor form, these things can start to hurt. He will never be allowed to forget this decision.He will have predicted the avalanche of criticism his decision would unleash. He will have seen the abuse heaped upon Jonathan Trott when he returned from the Ashes, the disapproval directed at Graeme Swann when he retired midway through that same series and the scorn directed at Kevin Pietersen pretty much every time he does anything. It is intriguing to note that when Pietersen led England back to India after the terrorist attacks of 2008, some - even some in the dressing room - mumbled that he was only doing it to increase his worth in the Indian market; really, they cant win. Morgan will have known that the market for moral indignation seems substantially more lucrative than the market for reporting the carve up of the Big Three at the ICC or the attempt to cut the number of first-class counties by stealth. Opinions - especially strong ones untempered by empathy - are easier to muster than facts.Ultimately, Morgan is a sportsman trying to muddle his way through a dilemma which is outside his experience or comfort zone. He may have got it right, he may have got it wrong. But perhaps we should respect that other people can look at the same facts and draw different conclusions?Alex Hales wont have taken this decision lightly, either. While he should regain his ODI place - he has scored four ODI centuries in the last 12 months - he knows this decision may well end his Test career. Given the extended runs the selectors tend to offer batsmen these days, Hales replacement can be expected to play all seven of the Tests before Christmas and be given every opportunity to establish themselves. With Hales team, Nottinghamshire, now in Division Two of the Championship and much of his time taken up with Englands white-ball commitments, it could prove a long journey back.While he has shown glimpses of the technique and temperament to make a success of opening in Test cricket, he averages just 27.28 after 11 Tests. The progress he appeared to have made against Sri Lanka where he averaged 58.40 was negated by his struggles against Pakistan where he made 145 runs at 18.12. He was far from certain to win selection for the Test side, anyway.Perhaps this may turn out to be for the best. The demands of playing in all three formats are exhausting and, at times, probably counter-productive to all but the most talented. If Hales is now able to concentrate upon his white-ball game and plays a part in England winning their first one-day global tournaments, he will have had a fine career.Longer term, it remains to be seen what the consequences of this episode are for the relationship between England and Bangladesh. They will not say so publically, but there will be a sense from some within the English game that tours to Bangladesh may be more trouble than they are worth. The ECB know they have to cut the international schedule and they know they can make more money elsewhere. Bangladeshs decision not to back the introduction of promotion and relegation in Test cricket may come back to haunt them. Balenciaga Pas Cher Chine .
