England’s T20 skipper Eoin Morgan hailed the team’s performance after they managed to eke out a three-run win in the only T20 match against India at Edgbaston on Sunday.

“We’ve worked really hard and to finish it on such a high against such a very strong T20 team — is a great achievement. It is hugely important. In the one-day series our senior players including myself didn’t stand up, which made things really difficult. To lead from the front myself was the way it should be done,” Morgan said.

India needed 17 runs off the last over with MS Dhoni on strike. Morgan felt Chris Woakes was spot on as any error would have led to Dhoni clobbering him for runs. “He’s a guy capable of anything. That first ball (of the last over) Woakesy bowled, he probably missed his length but not by much at all — he inside edged it for six. If Woakesy half executes the rest of the deliveries he faces in that over they could have gone for six as well.”
