Morgan 'a top flight player' - Moores

Peter Moores has backed Eoin Morgan to arrest his slump in form, describing him as a "top-flight one-day player" and suggesting that stepping up to take temporary charge of the team could help provide the spark he needs.

England seek jungle reinvigoration

In Hambantota, they say funny things can happen. And England need something unexpected to happen to their ODI cricket, some jungle juju to reinvigorate a stumbling side

02-Dec-2014•Alan Gardner

England in fresh start in the jungle

England have discovered that ODI cricket is becoming a jungle where only the sharpest, most ruthless survive, so their venture into Sri Lanka's deep south for the third match of the series at Hambantota seems symbolic

Savvy Bopara concentrates on team culture

Cook rebukes Pietersen dig, again

For the second time this year, Kevin Pietersen suggested Alastair Cook should quit the England captaincy. This time he tweeted his dissatisfaction with England's one-day form, though Cook is just as disinclined to listen

England's World Cup plans in a spin

Given the traumatic events of this week a one-day defeat is really not important at all so this match has to be analysed in a different light but will have to admit how poorly they performed

Mighty Mo gives silver lining to cloud over Cook

The mischievous thought that Moeen Ali and Alex Hales could feature in England's best ODI eleven will continue to grow as long as Alastair Cook's form remains in a muddy rut

England on defensive over Hales

England have been forced on to the defensive after just a few days in Sri Lanka, with Alastair Cook and Peter Moores having to explain the decision to leave Alex Hales out of Friday's opening warm-up match

20-Nov-2014•Alan Gardner

Moeen to replace Hales for first warm-up

England are set to tinker with their top three again by dropping opener Alex Hales for the first warm-up match of their Sri Lanka tour

James Taylor only played once alongside Kevin Pietersen but that didn't stop Pietersen from recording his reservations about the diminutive Nottinghamshire batsman

Cook's task to revive England's parrot

After some time off, England's captain was in chipper mood at Lord's as he prepared to head to Sri Lanka and had some strong defences of his own record
