Australian fast bowler Mitchell Johnson has warned England team to be wary of his menacing pace, saying that the Eoin Morgan led-team would be dreaming if they think they are not under pressure in the upcoming World Cup.

Returning to the team following an arduous Test series against India, Johnson scalped three crucial wickets, including Morgan's, in the final match at Perth.

In an attempt to warn England ahead of their World Cup clash, Johnson said that every team is under pressure - it is a World Cup, adding that they (England) are dreaming if they think they are not under pressure, News.com.au reported.

Reflecting on his performance during Tri-series final, Johnson said that he was a fast bowler who loves to bowl fast, adding that he didn't mind bowling the short ball, the report added.

Johnson added that the usage of short ball deliveries worked for him (in the final).

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