5 Most Strange Man of the Match/ Series awards in Cricket

4. Eoin Morgan was awarded a rice cooker

Eoin Morgan and Rice Cooker

The English captain, Eoin Morgan is prominent as a destructive batsman. He leads his national side in the limited-overs format and has helped England to reign as the World Champions for the first time ever in England’s Cricketing history. Not many might know, but Morgan first featured for Ireland in international cricket and then, later on, went to be a part of the 3 lions club.

The southpaw has achieved big in his career already but this gift might probably be the one, the story of which he will reiterate to his grandkids. Playing in the Dhaka Premier League in 2013, the dashing batsman was being awarded with a “Rice Cooker” for his match-winning knock.

For once he might have misunderstood the award given to him because he played that innings under pressure, hence a pressure cooker. But only later, he realized that it was the actual prize as the rice cooker company was the official sponsor of the game.
