Chasing 230, England fancied their chances and Jonny Bairstow and Dawid Malan gave them a good start by raising 30 runs for the first wicket. Things went south for India after that their batting capitulated and they were bundled out for 129 with Mohd Shami claiming 4-22 and Jasprit Bumrah bagging 3-32.

“Very disappointed. At the halfway stage, chasing 230, we would have fancied ourselves. Same old story. Very disappointed,” said Buttler during the post-match presentation on Sunday. Asked whether it made sense to absorb pressure after losing early wickets, Buttler said what matters more is how one executes the plans.

“I think whichever way you want to go, you have to be committed. It’s all about execution. It is. The answer is on a postcard, I think.
