Beating India 'great achievement' - Morgan

  • Intro:

    Reaction from England captain Eoin Morgan after securing a thrilling three-run win over India in their tour-ending Twenty20 international in Edgbaston, Birmingham.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Eoin Morgan, England captain:

    "Yeah absolutely... smiles in the changing room after a very tough summer. We have worked really hard to finish on such a high against such a very strong T20 team, given that they have competed at it very highly in the World Cup, is a great achievement."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Eoin Morgan, England captain:

    "I think it is important in general, given the transition that we have had in One Day and T20 sides. It was important that we won so that we take a little bit of pressure off the side and just to bring a couple of guys in and experiment a little bit before the World Cup. So I think as a general theme -- it was important."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Eoin Morgan, England captain:

    "Yeah it was brilliant. It is great top be a part of games like this and it is why you play the game and, again, for young guys coming through to experience this level is brilliant and they guys at the end 'Woaksy' [Chris Woakes], Harry Gurney and Steven Finn were outstanding. To hold their nerve... it was amazing to see how calm 'Woaksy' was at the end. It was great. We talked a lot of sense and kept things simple."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Eoin Morgan, England captain:

    "Yeah delighted. To get some sort of runs under my belt toward the end of the international summer and going into county cricket with three games left gives me a bit of a confidence."
