England limited-overs captain Eoin Morgan thinks that his side would be the joint-second favorite to win the ICC T20 World Cup 2022, after the hosts Australia who are the current champions having clinched the last year's T20 World Cup in UAE.
Morgan while talking to Perth Now said: "Given Australia won, they would go in favorites. I'd like to think we'd be joint second, if we continue on a reasonable run of form between now and then, probably with India and Pakistan. We know Australia's different, we know our guys play really well in Australia."
Morgan added: "It makes us feel a little bit more at ease than planning for conditions that we might not go in as one of the favorites. It makes us feel a little bit comfortable, we know what works in Australia."
It should be noted that England and Australia have been placed in Group 1 in this year's T20 World Cup in Australia and will lock horns against each other on October 28 at the picture-perfect Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
