Former England skipper Andrew Flintoff believes that Eoin Morgan's team is on cusp of doing something special after they hammered India by nine-wickets in Brisbane.

Reflecting on England's chances in the World Cup, Brisbane Heat all-rounder said that England were on the verge of doing something special in this form of the game, the BBC reported.

Flintoff further said that they need to realize they had never been any good at one-day cricket, adding that he played in three World Cups and didn't get anywhere in any of them.

According to him, the England team now has a chance to blaze a trail and form an identity, the report added.

England will open their World Cup campaign against Australia on February 14 in Melbourne.
