Players Need to Get Away & Come Back Fresh For Next Games: Morgan

England entered the World Cup semifinals for the first time since the 1992 edition, beating an erring New Zealand by 119 runs to fuel their "dream" of winning a maiden title.

"It's a hell of a lot of luck," England skipper Eoin Morgan said. "To run Kane out is a massive bonus."

Morgan told reporters at a post match presser that it is "pretty awesome" to reach the semi finals.

"Like I said after the India game, the way in which we played I think is more satisfying than the actual win, because if you win the game you go through to the next game – or the following test – full of confidence. I think today's a similar instance,” Morgan said.

I think the wicket did change after 25 overs, but in teams I’ve played with in the past we’d have played a completely different game to 25 overs and not made the most of it. Today we did and it was probably the winning of the game.”

Carrying a momentum of last two wins into the semis, Morgan feels that England did tap into what they have achieved.

"I think we do tap into what we've achieved the last two games. It's been extremely important to our campaign, it's obviously the reason we've got through and we've been able to play some of our best cricket because of that. So, tapping into that, identifying what we did well and if that still remains the same priority going into the semi-final, which I think it will," he said.

"Before the tournament started I thought that might be a trend, the toss being a huge deciding factor in the game, but I actually thought it would have been the other way round. I thought the ball might have swung a bit more if conditions were cloudy or if there was a bit of rain around, and everybody would have bowled first and chased. It's been the complete opposite, so it shows how much I know," he said.

Talking about taking significant rest before the final, Morgan said, "I think it is a really good thing. I can't wait to do nothing or get distracted by other things that I enjoy doing. I suppose we've rode the roller-coaster of playing well, playing terrible and then playing good again.

“So particularly our bowlers, they need a rest, they need to get away. We haven't chopped and changed the team a lot so our seamers do really need a rest and our batsmen need to get away from the game and hopefully come back fresh."
