But when the match resumed, Duckworth-Lewis was used to give England a new target of 34 off 13 balls.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;Personally I think Duckworth-Lewis will change as the game evolves,&quot; Morgan was quoted as saying by bbc.com on Friday. &nbsp;&quot;That&#39;s something that potentially could be looked at. Everything else in the game has changed.&quot;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Despite Friday&#39;s 13-run defeat at The Oval, Morgan said he was proud of his team&#39;s effort. &quot;The way we went about the chase, all credit goes to the guys. It&#39;s not a bad day for us, it&#39;s a continuation of the way we want to play,&quot; English skipper said.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;The guys were willing to take 398 on, throw themselves at it and have the ability to throw themselves at it. It was very entertaining,&quot; Morgan said.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum also acknowledged England&#39;s dramatic improvement since their dismal displays at the World Cup.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;This England team are playing a completely different brand of cricket to what they&#39;ve played in recent times. Both teams put up a hell of a fight and neither team probably deserved to lose,&quot; McCullum said.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
