England one-day international captain Eoin Morgan has played down the need for a new world league in the shorter format of the game, adding that the World Cup and Champions Trophy remain appealing enough.

"I am not sure it needs it [the world league]. Cricket is in a reasonable position at the moment," the 29-year-old said.

"The Champions Trophy next year will highlight that, it is a great tournament whereby something is on every game. The World Cup goes on a lot longer," he added.
