Moores backing Morganpublished at 23:22 Greenwich Mean Time 13 February 2015
England coach Peter Moores has come out in support of his captain Eoin Morgan, who took some criticism from Test Match Special's Geoffrey Boycott earlier this week.
Moores told BBC Radio 5 live: "As a captain, you're desperate to do well for the team, and he's had a couple of very early dismissals. But he's hitting the ball well, and he got a fantastic hundred at the SCG early in the tri-series.
"He's got a reputation of being a big match player, so I think he's very excited about getting into the tournament proper. I'm happy with how he's playing, and I'm confident that throughout the tournament he's going to play well because he's a quality player. He knows what to expect, he knows the opposition and I think he'll be ready to go."
