England white ball captain Jos Buttler has insisted his side are not favourites to win the T20 World Cup this winter, but believes they are a "dangerous team that sides wouldn't want to play against".
Buttler has taken over a team which is not as strong as it once was. Former captain Eoin Morgan retired from international cricket this summer after a run of poor form, while explosive opener Jason Roy has been dropped following his own struggles with form.
Jonny Bairstow and Jofra Archer are both currently out injured, while Chris Woakes and Mark Wood have not played first-team cricket since March due to their own injury problems. As a result, Buttler feels this winter's World Cup is actually a "free hit" for England although he remains confident that they still have a "squad full of match winners".
