Summary Eoin Morgan's desperate run of low scores continued when he fell for 17 against New Zealand.
WELLINGTON (AFP) - England captain Eoin Morgan s desperate run of low scores continued when he fell for 17 against World Cup co-hosts New Zealand in Wellington on Friday.
But the former Ireland batsman s laboured 41-ball stay in the middle was a relative success given his previous five innings had yielded four noughts.
Left-hander Morgan, out for a duck in England s crushing 111-run defeat by Australia in their tournament opener in Melbourne, fell on Friday when he was brilliantly caught in the deep by a diving Adam Milne after lofting veteran spinner Daniel Vettori.
Morgan s exit left England in trouble at 104 for four and that quickly became 108 for six as Tim Southee yorked James Taylor and had Jos Buttler caught behind.
