Former captain Michael Vaughan believes England have every chance of winning the World Twenty20 in the Caribbean that starts on Friday.
Paul Collingwood's men begin their campaign on Monday against West Indies before a showdown with Ireland a day later.
Despite England's failings in the previous two limited-overs events, Vaughan now feels the team has a balanced look to it and predicts they can go all the way in the West Indies especially with several players having now experienced the Indian Premier League.
Speaking to reporters, he said: "This is the third T20 World Cup, and this is the first time I've got excited about the England squad coming into it.
"For the first time we have guys in the batting with power from one to seven. Maybe we're a little bit inexperienced in the bowling department, but I think it's the batting which has let us down in the past.
"We've had guys who've played in the IPL, which is a big plus to a team going into a tournament like this. I'd be disappointed if we don't put up some kind of fight."
