LONDON (Reuters) - England captain Eoin Morgan believes the expectation on his side to win the Cricket World Cup for the first time is to be expected given their form, but said producing the goods when it really matters represents a very different challenge.

Ranked the number one one-day side in the world, England are firm favourites with British bookmakers to lift the trophy on home soil with the tournament getting under way at The Oval next week.
