It's a good point, the bowler made a real point of showing Buttler that he felt he was backing up too early and demonstrated he could get him out.. I'd agree with the comments about not being in the spirit of the game, but Buttler has to take responsibility for what is really a school boy error.
Shocking decision by Sri Lanka. Just seen it, Buttler wasn't trying to charge down to nick a run, he's not even really backing up, he's just edged forward. Definitely not in the spirit of the game.
Whoops there goes Treadwell's timbers!
Buttler gone. We should stop panicking when it goes against us. We never seem to reevaluate what a good score would be. 240 / 250 could be a decent total on this pitch, with 7 overs left we shouldn't be pressing the panic button thinking we have to get to 270 / 280+.
Bell has an average of 37 with a SR of 76 which is better than Gooch, Collingwood, Strauss, Stewart, Hussain, Gatting, Vaughan and a whole host of other players in ODI's.
Don't disagree with our pace of innings though. Why are we so content to label youngsters as not being ready for certain...
