Eoin Morgan is pleased with the fact that England are going to Headingley 1-1. However, at the same time, he says that he is not a fan of bilateral series’.

“I am not a huge fan of bilateral series. Having a game like this is crucial for us. Ido prefer a tri-series. The context. Every game brings something different with significance on it,” Morgan was quoted as saying in a CricBuzz report.

Although Kuldeep Yadav claimed three wickets again in the second match, England took him on and do got ample runs as well. “The more we play him the easier he will be to pick. But you still have to play him well. I thought Joe was quite significant in that, his rotation of strike, his calm head. I thought we did our basics right. It was much better."

The England skipper was also asked about Mahendra Singh Dhoni being booed for his slow batting. "It is something that happens in India a lot, and when you are playing in front of a predominantly Indian crowd, you will get reactions similar to that. So when you hit a boundary there will be absolute silence or when you take a wicket,” he explained from experience.
