Shame about Buttler. Somehow he still only has one international T20 century.

Totally selfless though. He seems to play for the team and the situation and not his own personal high scores.

Watched the end of that, nice to see us play well again, didn't see last night, but sounded similar.

Butler very good, Livingstone clinical when he came out.

England gave away 30+ runs in extras,mostly byes,pathetic. Batsmen excellent.

Great story about a text from Ben Stokes.
Anderson took seven wickets for Lancs immediately after his demise from the Test team was announced. Stokes texted him:
“Did you really have to do that?”
