Series win is England's best yet says skipper

England limited overs captain Eoin Morgan has hailed his team's series victory in Australia as the best performance from the side since their white-ball revolution in 2015.

England have won nine of 11 one-day series in the past two years, after their administration prioritised the 50-over form of the game following their shock group exit from the last World Cup.

But after the disappointment of the Ashes loss for the Test side, Morgan was most impressed by the team's efforts to claim their first ever bilateral one-day series win in Australia.

"This series has a potential to exploit some of the weaknesses or cracks within the group," he said.

"And I thought we responded incredibly well to that.

"(Sunday's win) was our best performance as a group to date in the past two years."

England have now risen to No.3 in the world one-day rankings as a result of the opening three victories, but well within touching distance of South Africa and India in the top two spots.

They should now be considered genuine threats to win their maiden World Cup next year, to be played in their home conditions.

Their results have largely been driven with the bat, given their run rate of 6.38 last season was well above the next best figure of 6.00 from South Africa.

They have also now gone at a rate of above a run a ball in each of their past eight matches, something attacking dynamo Jos Buttler said was largely down to players being encouraged to be adventurous with a modern style of batting.

"It's more of a mindset," said Buttler, who hit an even 100no on Sunday.

"From 2015 onwards it's something we've always talked about in the mindset and we've stuck by guys who have tried to play in that fashion even if it hasn't come off for them.

"I think that creates a lot of continuity and confidence for guys to go out and play in that fashion."
