London, Dec 19 (IBNS): Aliaster Cook has been replaced by Eoin Morgan as the new captain of the England ODI side, reports said.

"Alastair Cook has been removed as England one-day captain and replaced by fellow batsman Eoin Morgan, less than two months before the World Cup," BBC reported.

Cook was appointed as the ODI captain in 2011.

Congreatulating Morgan, he said: "Congrats @Eoin16 .... The right man for the job."
