5 Reasons why England can win the World T20

England won the World T20 in 2010 but can they repeat the feat?'Revolution' is the word to describe the complete turnaround of England Cricket team after their humiliating 50 over World Cup campaign in 2015. It looks as if England have finally figured out the shorter formats of the game. Under the captaincy of Eoin Morgan and coaching partnership of Trevor Bayliss and Paul Farbrace, it looks like the beginning of something really special and this T20 World cup might be the perfect opportunity to make their mark.If this England team keeps playing the fearless attacking cricket that they have been playing for the past 12 months, they have got every reason to be optimistic about their chances at the tournament.Here are 5 reasons why England can win this World T20.

#1 A team full of match-winners

Joe Root and Eoin Morgan

Looking at the England squad for the World Cup, one thing that can be said for sure is that they are not short of matchwinners. In Joe Root, Eoin Morgan, Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes, they have got four world-class players who can change the game in a flick of an eye. The baby-faced assassin, Joe Root is a three-dimensional batsman who performs in every form of the game with same consistency.

Jos Buttler was in monstrous form in recent series against Pakistan in somewhat similar conditions and can frighten any bowling attack with his hard-hitting ability. Ben Stokes has shown glimpses of his all-round ability but he is yet to perform at the international stage in limited overs cricket.

England's highest ever T20 scorer, Captain Eoin Morgan is always a threat with the bat. Apart from these four, Adil Rashid might turn out to be a surprise package having taken 16 wickets at 14 with an excellent economy rate of 6.51 in the Big Bash League. If England want to win, the form of these players will be crucial.
