England can ice their legacy as one of the greatest white-ball sides of all time if they defend their 50-over title in India
'I feel like legacy is defined by others,' said England captain Jos Buttler, ahead of a legacy-defining few months for his side. England's limited-overs team are arguably one of the greatest white-ball outfits the game has ever seen but if they successfully defend their 50-over crown in India, there can surely be no argument. Australia are the only men's side to have won three successive World Cups, capturing the 50-over version in 1999, 2003 and 2007.
As for the 'scoring lots of runs very, very quickly bit', that remains a key component of this white-ball side, with the only changes to England's likely top six from the 2019 World Cup being Livingstone replacing the now-retired Morgan in the middle order and Dawid Malan ousting Jason Roy as opener after he sparkled against New Zealand last month while Roy sat out with back spasms.
