LONDON (Reuters) - England captain Alastair Cook believes a diet of nothing but one-day cricket this winter and the return of a number of rested key players will give England their best chance to win the World Cup.

Having not played any form of cricket since a Twenty20 victory against India in early September, England's weary team are rested after a testing year on and off the field.
