Captain Eoin Morgan is confident England will put the Tri-Series final defeat against Australia behind them and bounce back for their World Cup clash with the same opponents at the MCG on February 14. The batsman also discusses the positive progress his team has made during the tour of Australia, upcoming rest and warm-up games in Sydney and how he has found the first few weeks in the job as captain.
Australia clinched the tri-series by beating England by a comprehensive margin of 112 runs in the final at Perth. England had their moments on the field when they put Australia in to bat, but some lower order resistance ensured that they put up 278 on the board. In reply, Mitchell Johnson tore apart the top order and the others contributed in England’s downfall.
