England T20 captain Eoin Morgan said that his team fell short by 10-15 runs after getting off to a blistering start in the first T20 match against India which they lost, says a report in The Times of India.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We got off to a fantastic start — Alex (Hales) and Luke (Wright) really came together as a pair — but from there we didn’t really kick on,” said Morgan. <\/p>\n

“We lost wickets continuously which halted our momentum and didn’t do us any favours. The total we did creep up to was probably about 10 or 15 short of par,” he added.<\/p>\n

England suffered a mid-innings collapse which hurt them badly.<\/p>\n

“We said at the halfway stage we would have to do things exceptionally well to win this game, because the wicket did play so well, and we just lacked a bit of discipline really,” said Morgan.<\/p>\n

“Losing wickets in Twenty20 cricket doesn’t help — and batting first, you never know how much is enough because you play on a small ground on a good wicket. We didn’t compensate for the wickets and again didn’t set it up for the finish. We lost wickets at the wrong times,” he added.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, The Business Line<\/strong> quoted Morgan saying that he would continue to encourage his batsmen to go for their shots on good tracks.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll continue to encourage the guys to play positively and again build partnerships and continue momentum if the wicket is good,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Morgan was all praise for Yuvraj Singh who turned the match around for the hosts.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a very clean striker of a cricket ball, and again always has that danger factor. He can clear the ropes and he did that tonight \u2014 he had one over when he went berserk. All credit to him; he bowled well. He does a great job, and has done for years,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
