England star Jos Buttler has dismissed his own chances of opening for the Test team anytime soon.
The 31-year-old was recently appointed Eoin Morgan's successor as ODI and T20 captain after the ex-Ireland star retired from international cricket. Buttler is largely regarded as one of the best white-ball players on the planet, but the debate surrounding his Test future continues to divide opinion.
England have undergone a metamorphosis since Brendon McCullum was appointed the new head coach, while Ben Stokes has taken over as captain. Buttler's promotion as opener would be another twist in that transformation, an idea that's gained momentum since Kumar Sangakkara suggested it during the recent third Test match against New Zealand.
