England captain Jos Buttler believes his team will be well equipped to retain the T20 World Cup after a poor defense of the 50-over win in India last year.
England will be one of the favorites for the 2024 World Cup to be held in the Caribbean and
America after defeating Pakistan in the final in Australia two years ago.

white bowlers of his generation, scored 138 runs in 15 overs.

his third role as captain and striker.Matthew Mott, the Australian coach of the England cricket
team, also faced criticism following the selection series, but Buttler said that was an
understatement for the infighting between the Indian sides.

“I thought Jofra Archer was brilliant. “In England you can see that emotions are taking over the clubs again but we have to lower our expectations because it will not improve immediately. “It remains to be seen whether the 29-year-old can withstand the rigors of cricket even if the T20 limit is reduced to four per game.
But, he highlighted Archer’s value to England. He said: “He showed good pace when taking wickets. He showed good pace when bowling in the middle. He was good at bowling yorkers at the end. He’s a great asset to us. We’re excited to have him.”” set.”.
