New England white-ball captain Jos Buttler has delivered a frank assessment of his side's poor summer, admitting their failure to win a single series since he took over is a "reality check".
England enjoyed a remarkable turnaround in their white-ball fortunes under previous skipper Eoin Morgan, culminating in their 2019 World Cup win. However, they have endured a difficult start under Buttler, losing three series and drawing one.
As a result, England failed to win a white-ball series at home this summer for the first time in nine years and Buttler believes they need to start "looking forward" and cannot "live in the past and pat ourselves on the backs for the changes that have been made".
