Morgan had also made scathing attack on England’s selection.
“They’ve made makes with selection. They’ve really struggled to find a balanced side and one that’s effective enough to compete, never mind win this tournament. It’s been unbelievably challenging for Jos and his team and they have to regain the confidence in the method that they’ve used for so long that has made them double world champions,” he said.
