Rashid returned figures of 3/54 from his 10 overs to help England restrict Australia to 223 in the semifinal of 2019 World Cup. 

England were knocked out in the group stages of the 2015 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand but four years later, they are in the final, looking to win their maiden World Cup title.

Adil Rashid also stated that Eoin Morgan knows his game inside out and has been with him through 'good and not so good times'.

Skipper Eoin Morgan and boys have a special gift ready for the backend staff who have worked tirelessly at the ECB office over the past four years to help the players and team to realise their goals.

Openers Jonny Bairstow and Jason Roy are in the form of their lives and Morgan would love a fifth consecutive century stand from them in the final against New Zealand.

The English captain was relaxed after his side registered a comfortable victory over New Zealand in the group stage game of the 2019 World Cup.

Jonny Bairstow and Jason Roy attacked the spinners early on and took them to the cleaners and that turned the tide in England's favour.

The skipper was also protective of his players and despite a below-par effort in the tournament so far, he couldn't find any fault in their commitment.

After being top-draw, England have struggled to establish their authority and without Jason Roy, the home side's balance has taken a hit and their chances of making the semi-finals are diminishing.

The loss to Australia's was the second consecutive loss for England after their shocking defeat against Sri Lanka on June 21.

Smith and Warner have been booed, jeered, and abused by fans during the ongoing World Cup, in their first official international games since returning from 12-month bans imposed.

Morgan, however, is confident that the team will bounce back in the upcoming games, which include heavyweight clashes against Australia, India and New Zealand.

Eoin Morgan, who suffered from a back spasm in the previous game against West Indies, smashed a record-shattering 17 sixes in his knock of 148 off 71 balls.

Morgan, who had been a doubtful starter because of a back problem, raised his half-century from 36 balls, then went on to smash a 57-ball ton and hammered 148 in 71 balls before being removed.

Despite Roy picking up an injury, Morgan declined to speculate on which candidates could be drafted into England's 15-man squad if Roy is ruled out.

During the West Indies game, Eoin Morgan left the field in the 41st over of West Indian innings, joining Jason Roy on the treatment table, who had earlier hobbled off with a hamstring strain.

Joe Root became only the second England batsman to hit two centuries in a single World Cup after Kevin Pietersen, who smashed two centuries in the 2007 edition.

England let down a couple of chances and were sloppy in the field and Pakistan scored 334/9 in the end and won the match by 14 runs.

England skipper Eoin Morgan admitted that they weren't able to execute their plan with the bat due to the tricky nature of the wicket. 

England brushed aside Pakistan 4-0 earlier this month and, although they lost their warm-up match with Australia, saw off Afghanistan in their final contest on Monday.
