Alastair Cook would be "devastated" if he were to be relieved of his position as England's one-day captain before next year's World Cup and still believes his beleaguered side have a chance of lifting the trophy.
Cook's position at the head of the ODI team has come under scrutiny, even if he has silenced the doubters at leading the Test side, following a dreadful run of results.
The left-handed opening batsman has presided over five successive series defeats in the 50-over format, with former team-mate Graeme Swann calling for Cook to focus solely on Test cricket and next summer's Ashes.
Yet the 29-year-old insists he is the man to lead England at the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, when the tournament gets under way next February, although he added he would take it on the chin if the England and Wales Cricket Board thought otherwise.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

And everyone else would be devastated if you were to keep the ODI captaincy, Alastair.
