5 underrated performers at the 2016 World T20 whose contributions don't fade away

Jason Roy gave England furious starts. Thanks to him, England had a lot of runs on board before the powerplay ended and it was on this strong foundation on which Joe Root built his best performances. Joe Root’s perseveration in batting became the architect of almost every batting innings England played. However, the icing on the cake was always provided by Jos Buttler.

Buttler did in this World Cup what Kieswetter showed us in the 2010 edition. A wicket-keeper-batsman by trait, he only batted in one way: the way he knows, and that is to smack the ball all over the park. He scored 191 runs in the tournament—second most among England players and third highest in the main tournament. However, Jason Roy and Joe Root were the ones who stole majority of the hearts.
