England new skipper Eoin Morgan has revealed that pace spearhead James Anderson is likely to be fit for the clash against India at the Brisbane Cricket Ground on Tuesday.

Anderson missed the first match of the triangular series in Sydney, where the hosts registered a three-wicket win over England.

Morgan said that Anderson was very likely to be fit for the next game, adding that if he had played against Australia, it would have been a bit risky as he had got a stiff groin, the Manchester EveningNews reported.

Though Morgan tried to steady the ship to guide his team to reach 234 with his resilient knock of 121, David Warner stole the show as he smashed his first ODI century in almost three years to guide the Australians to a three-wicket win with more than 10 overs to spare.
