Eoin Morgan: I've not been good enough

England batsman Eoin Morgan concedes that he hasn't been good enough to justify selection in the recent tests and ODIs against Pakistan.

England batsman Eoin Morgan has admitted that he has not been good enough in the recent Tests and one-dayers against Pakistan to justify selection.

The 25-year-old's highest score out of the 13 innings played in the United Arab Emirates is 31.

However, the Dublin-born batsman has produced unbeaten knocks of 24 and 25 in the two most recent ODIs.

"I always put myself under a lot of pressure, particularly in the longer format of the game," he said.

"But I haven't scored enough weight of runs to justify being number one in the side."

Morgan insisted that he is still in form, adding: "No, I've been out of form before and sometimes I've not seen where my next run is coming from. I just haven't got the runs I wanted. I'm still in reasonable touch."

He has four more innings left on the UAE tour to prove his mettle, starting with the fourth and final game of the one-day series, followed by three Twenty20s.
