T20 World Cup: 'We're Outplayed By India, Hoping To Restrict Them To 145-150', Admits Buttler
T20 World Cup: England captain Jos Buttler admitted that India outplayed them after a 68-run drubbing in the semifinal of the T20 World Cup at Providence Stadium. The wicketkeeper-batter also rued the opportunity of not using Moeen Ali's overs in the match.
Buttler won the toss and invited India to bat first under rain threat. However, India captain Rohit Sharma's another batting masterclass of 57 from 39 balls backed with Suryakumar Yadav's 47 from 36 guided India to 171/7 in 20 overs, which was actually 15-20 runs above the par score.
"A little bit of both. I thought they played well as well. I thought we bowled a little bit without luck in the power play, a few close calls there. But, yes, I think the benefit of hindsight and reflecting, I would have got Moeen (Ali) in the game of course. So, yes, bits and pieces here and there," said Buttler after the match.
