'Great Sadness': Buttler Reflects On Quitting England's Captaincy Role

By IANS News March 03, 2025 • 14:54 PM View: 513

T20 World Cup: After stepping down as England white-ball captain following an early exit from the Champions Trophy, Jos Buttler said he was left with "great sadness" after relinquishing his leadership role which he felt was an immense honour.

England ended their eight-team tournament without a win after losing to Australia, Afghanistan and South Africa respectively.

Buttler, who was appointed as Eoin Morgan's successor in June 2022 and won the T20 World Cup in Australia later that year, announced his decision before their final Group B match against South Africa which they lost by seven wickets in Karachi.
