Could Paul Stirling be the next Eoin Morgan?
Eight weeks short of his 20th birthday, Ireland batsman Paul Stirling is already being compared to Eoin Morgan. Like the new England sensation, Stirling could well follow the route from Ireland to the English side through a stint with Middlesex. Ian Callender of the Belfast Telegraph profiles the youngster and explores the possibilities ahead of him.
One of his Ireland team-mates, John Mooney, said this week if he was given the choice of paying to watch Morgan, Stirling or Ed Joyce, the former Ireland and England batsman who is set to return to the Irish side, it would be Stirling every time.
