Mark Butcher believes England's current batting line up at the T20 World Cup is 'not working' and has claimed they should drop either Ben Stokes or Dawid Malan.
England are well-placed to reach the semi-finals after an excellent win over New Zealand and they tinkered with their line-up after two lacklustre displays against Afghanistan and Ireland. After a brilliant opening partnership worth 81 between Jos Buttler and Alex Hales, England moved Stokes and Malan down the order as they tend to play the 'anchor' role and start slowly before teeing off at the back end.
However, the likes of Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone are more explosive strikers who look to hit sixes from ball one. And both Stokes and Malan have struggled at the World Cup so far, with Stokes scoring just 16 runs in three innings and failing to hit a single boundary.
