Eoin Morgan: 'We have momentum after victory'

England one-day captain Eoin Morgan praises his players and says that his side have the momentum going into the final ODI against Australia on Sunday.

England one-day international captain Eoin Morgan has said that his side have the momentum going into the final match of the series with Australia on Sunday after securing victory in the fourth match at Headingley.

Morgan hit 92 at on Friday to lead his side to a three-wicket win to level the series at 2-2 with one game to play.

The 29-year-old said that the hosts are now the better placed to go on to secure victory, and praised the attitude of the group of players.

"If momentum does exist then I think that it is with us," he told reporters. "I think we managed to steal a little bit of it in Manchester last time and we are going into Sunday with guys full of confidence.

"The attitude this group of players show, I think, is outstanding. It is certainly not about experience because we are a young side, it is just a 'let's take it on attitude' which is brilliant.

"We have had a little bit of success this summer and hope that continues because I think it will accelerate our learning."

The Ashes rivals face a winner-takes-all finale in the fifth ODI at Old Trafford on Sunday.
