Buttler and Root’s comeback
…ensued. One can actually pinpoint the three players who have stood out for England in this tournament: Jason Roy, Joe Root and Jos Buttler. The 3 J’s have performed with consistency and scored the bulk of the runs for their team.
As Jason Roy made a rare failure today, Joe Root and Jos Buttler took it on them to take England to safety. These two put up 61 runs together before the wicketkeeper-batsman fell prey to Carlos Brathwaite.
Root, however, kept moving forward and as he scored 54 runs in 36 balls, playing another gem of an innings to help England to a fighting total.
