Former Australia batsman Mike Hussey has insisted that England have a squad capable of winning the ICC World T20 title.

Trevor Bayliss's side are not widely regarded to be among the favourites to go all the way in India.

However, Hussey has claimed that there is enough "talent" within the ranks for England to spring a surprise.

"T20 cricket is high-stress, high-profile and high-octane and sometimes you can get carried away with that emotion whether things are going really well or poorly," he told the Daily Mail.

"You can really ride those huge waves and I think those two guys in the leadership roles will be very calm throughout the whole campaign.

"I definitely think they can win it. There's so much talent and ability in that England squad."

England begin their group campaign against the West Indies on Wednesday.
