Morgan Backs Buttler After England Faced A Crushing Defeat Against India At Oval

Swashbuckling wicketkeeper-batter Jos Buttler's life as England's white-ball skipper hasn't been off to a great start, losing the T20I series to India 2-1, which was followed by a 10-wicket thrashing handed by the visitors in the first ODI at The Oval on Tuesday.

Despite the return of big guns like Ben Stokes, Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow, England were skittled out for 110 in just 25.2 overs, with Jasprit Bumrah being the chief destroyer with a fiery 6-19. In a paltry chase of 111, Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan were unbeaten on 76 and 31 respectively to seal a 10-wicket win for India.
