T20 World Cup: Paine Calls Out Buttler For Brain Fades In England's Loss To Australia
T20 World Cup: Tim Paine has called out England captain Jos Buttler for making lots of brain fades during his team’s 36-run defeat to Australia in the T20 World Cup match, which meant that the defending champions are staring at an early exit from the competition.
At the Kensington Oval, Australia posted 201/7, before leg-spinner Adam Zampa took 2-28 off his four overs to seal a 36-run win over a sloppy England. Paine, the former Australia Test captain, thinks Buttler got it wrong from electing to bowl first.
"Everyone’s been talking about the fact these conditions are really hard to play in, they’re only going to get harder as the game goes on. To say they won the toss and bowled because there was a short boundary and the wind was blowing that way… was the boundary going to get shorter as the game went on?
