Peter Moores looks back at England’s ‘disappointing’ tri-series final

England coach Peter Moores looks back at a ‘ disappointing’ tri-Series final performance against Australia at the Western Australia Cricket Association (WACA), the progress his side has made during the tour Down Under, the form of key pacemen Stuart Broad and James Anderson and selection moving forward, including a return to net action for fit-again Gary Ballance.

Apart from him, English skipper Eoin Morgan today expressed disappointment in the manner his side surrendered in the cricket tri-series final to Australia by 112 runs here but said that they will come back stronger in the ICC World Cup 2015 beginning on February 14.

England were bowled out for just 166 while chasing the 279-run target. They failed to capitalise on the strong opening bowling display as they allowed Australia to notch up 278 for eight after being reduced to 60 for 4 in the 18th over.

“Winning the toss and bowling first and having them four down early was obviously brilliant but then they had a good partnership in the middle. They played well but it also encouraged us that the surface was getting better and that we could chase down anything under 300. It is disappointing, having been beaten in that fashion,” said Morgan at the post-match press conference, PTI reported.
