Having been victorious in the West Indies in May, England's cricket team know just what it's like to win a World Cup.

And as Fabio Capello's men prepare to take on Germany in the last 16 encounter in Bloemfontain, the current ICC Twenty20 World Champions send a message of support to the Three Lions.

And the cricket players have been gripped by football fever as they took part in a penalty shootout at Old Trafford. Two teams, captained by Graeme Swann and Alastair Cook, went head to head to see who were the best from the spot.

But when it comes to the crunch, there is only one side they want to see celebrating on the football pitch.

"Good luck England at the World Cup," said Swann. "I'm not saying it's easy to win a World Cup because we did it. Just forget about all that, go out there, do your best and I'm sure you'll do us pround."
