Batsman Eoin Morgan paid the price for a dismal tour of the United Arab Emirates by being dropped from England's test squad on Tuesday for the two-test series in Sri Lanka.
Morgan averaged just 13.66 runs per innings against Pakistan in three tests in the Emirates and fared little better in the limited-overs contests despite being regarded as a specialist.
His struggles presented an opportunity for Samit Patel, who was included in the 16-man test squad for the first time and will compete with Ravi Bopara for the No. 6 spot in the batting lineup.
