Liam Plunkett has warned Australia that England are a "different sort of animal" from their predecessors as they prepare for their blockbuster World Cup semi-final.
The Ashes rivals meet in Birmingham on Thursday with defending champions Australia hoping to stay on track for a sixth title while England aim to stay in the hunt for their first.
Australia have the edge in terms of tournament experience and have won the past four World Cup meetings between the teams -- including a group match earlier in this tournament -- but Plunkett insists times have changed.
"They've been there and done it before but not against this bunch of players," he said.
"We're a different sort of animal compared to our last teams. We've played well for the past four years, we're ranked number one and we feel in a good place. We feel on our day we can beat anyone in the world."
"It would be nice to finish this four-year cycle. This journey we've been on, with this group of boys, it comes down to this."
