England's under-fire skipper Eoin Morgan has backed his team to comeback strongly after incurring two back-to-back World Cup debacles, saying that he won't go into a panic mode by making significant changes in the team.

England suffered a humiliating eight-wicket defeat against New Zealand on Friday in Wellington after losing their World Cup opener against Australia.

In light of the team's defeat against New Zealand, Morgan said that they didn't want to go into a state of panic where they make three or four changes for one game, adding that he had always believed in backing the right players at the right time, the Daily Express reported.

Morgan further said that the eleven they had playing were the best to win the game, adding that because they were outperformed didn't mean they would be binning anybody.

Scotland and England will face off against each other on Monday in Christchurch.
