Ahead of their derby clash with Ireland in Guyana, England may be feeling slightly nervy.
Previous World Twenty20s have been marked by memorable shocks. Last year began with the Netherlands' victory over the hosts. Smaller upsets followed when Ireland knocked out Bangladesh and Australia failed to progress beyond the first round.

"We're very, very frustrated, 95% of the time 191 runs is enough but with D/L it wasn't. They need a different calculation."
Paul Collingwood's England never had much of a prayer in the revised Duckworth Lewis calculation against the West Indies in the Guyana clash, despite posting an incredibly competitive score. Something similar happened to Collingwood in the last Twenty20 World Championship against the same opposition in England.

Michael Vaughan, speaking on TMS during England's rather bizarre defeat to West Indies, recounted that he had recently asked Eoin Morgan what his ambitions in the sport were.
Young Eoin, surely one of the first crop of players to think like this, wanted above all else to be a great limited overs player. Not a Test legend, but a ODI and Twenty20 star. To poor Aggers, this sounded like someone telling his army officer dad that he wanted to be a ballet dancer, or a Celtic parent hearing his kid declare a passionate love for Ally McCoist. It seemed so... jarring.

West Indies defied the rain to scrape a Duckworth-Lewis win over England, leaving their opponents to face a Providence shoot-out with Ireland for a World Twenty20 Super Eights place.
The weather played havoc with the home reply to 191 for five today. But a storming start before rain first intervened at the Guyana National Stadium took the Windies to 30 without loss, and they eventually returned to achieve a revised target of 60 in six overs - with eight wickets and one ball to spare.

Paul Collingwood remains convinced it is simply a matter of time before Michael Lumb and Craig Kieswetter overpower England's World Twenty20 opposition.
West Indies are in the firing line on Monday, in Group D at the Guyana National Stadium - and although England's new power-hitting opening pair have yet to click together after two warm-up victories, captain Collingwood's faith in their abilities is undiminished.
