England full of confidence ahead of World T20, says Eoin Morgan

"We are in a really good place mentally," Morgan told reporters on Tuesday.

"As long as we execute our plans and go about our business the way we normally do I think we'll be in a stable position."

England have struggled in recent times against quality spin bowling but Morgan did not expect spin to play a major role in the first two matches against West Indies and South Africa, both at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium. England's next Group 1 matches - against Afghanistan and Sri Lanka - will be staged in New Delhi.

"It's normally a good batting surface here," he said. "It's another challenge for a bowler to try and emphasize taking wickets and holding momentum throughout the innings."

Well that's good to hear that they're in upbeat spirits and feeling confident, but I must admit I'd have been surprised if he had come out and said anything else really.

It's rare a team or players come out and say we're all a bit down and aren't expecting to win a game!
