London, Dec 19 (IBNS): Aliaster Cook has been replaced by Eoin Morgan as the new captain of the England ODI side, reports said.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

Reacting to the news, former England captain Michael Vaughan tweeted: "Right call made by England... Now I hope Cook can have a good break and then come back in the summer as the Test player we know he can be."

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