More from Wayne Rooney: "It's a great honour to captain my country and I want to be a successful captain. I'm sure all the team want that, we're working hard to try and get there and tomorrow is the start of a new chapter. Last summer we were all disappointed, we went in with high hopes, we were expecting better but we have to move on, there is no point looking back. We've had retirements but young players coming in and it's exciting."

"I have worked under some fantastic captains in the past and I've watched how they have adapted to the role.

"I'll try and take the qualities they have and add my own ingredients in."

More from England coach Roy Hodgson: "It's been very good, we've only been together since Sunday evening but we seem to have crammed an awful lot in with our meetings and training sessions I get get the feeling the players cant wait to kick off this new campaign. We would like to get that feel good factor but we are still aware the two-year journey is a longish one and will see a lot of changes."

England manager Roy Hodgson, speaking ahead of Wednesday's friendly with Norway: "All but one of the squad are fit. Jack Colback is out of the game tomorrow. The starting line up will be a young one. It will contain some interesting talents and has enormous potential.

Just to compound matters for England supporters, Australia made 282-7 from their 50 overs against South Africa in the triangular series in Harare, with 22-year-old Mitchell Marsh, in his eighth ODI, firing an unbeaten 86 from 51 balls, with five fours and seven sixes.

More from David Beckham's interview with the BBC and, asked about the lack of home grown players at Manchester United, he says: "Manchester United have always bought players in but we have also had a great scouting system which Sir Alex Ferguson put in quite a few years ago where we did create young talent - and home grown talent - and that is something we have done over the years.

"I am not a manager, I am definitely not Manchester United manager. I think Louis van Gaal is a talented manager, he is well respected and with Manchester United this is a project which will hopefully last for a few years and be a successful one. Hopefully we have still got young players coming through."

England are all out for 206 in the final over of the fourth one-day international at Edgbaston. Moeen Ali top-scored for the hosts, who were put in by India, the left-hander making 67 from 50 balls with four fours and three sixes.

After being picked in the Ryder Cup team by Paul McGinley, Ian Poulter tells Sky Sports that he "can't wait" to get there.

"I think the guys with the experience can help the rookies to make it an unbelievably strong team," Poulter said. "We are so close. The European team bonds so strongly.
