• Morgan: ‘When we get beaten we tend to come back strong’
• Jos Buttler praised ‘fantastic’ four-wicket display by Malinga
Eoin Morgan ordered his players to front up against Australia at Lord’s on Tuesday and learn lessons quickly following the shock 20-run defeat by Sri Lanka at Headingley.
A target of 233 was the lowest that Morgan’s trailblazing England side have failed to chase in the past four years and brought back memories of their 2017 Champions Trophy semi-final defeat by Pakistan given their struggle on a low-scoring surface.
