T20 World Cup 2022 Jos Buttler became boss Buttler - Aakash Chopra lauds England skipper s knock vs New Zealand

Jos Buttler's half-century helped England register a comfortable win against New Zealand. Aakash Chopra has lauded for playing a match-winning knock in England's clash against New Zealand. Buttler smashed 73 runs off 47 balls as England set a 180-run target for the Kiwis in their Group 1 Super 12 game in Brisbane on Tuesday, November 1. Their bowlers then restricted Kane Williamson and Co. to 159/6 to register a convincing 20-run win. While reviewing the game in a video shared on his YouTube channel, Chopra pointed out that the England skipper was back to his dominant best with the bat. He said: "Jos Buttler became boss Buttler and when he plays like that, amazing things happen. He got a life at the start, it was a difficult catch that Kane (Williamson) dropped, and then there was an easy catch that Daryl Mitchell dropped." Chopra placed Buttler on a high pedestal. The former India opener observed: "Our Player of the Match was Jos Buttler. It was his 100th T20I and he scored 73 runs in that. He is such an amazing player, I am saying there is no T20 batter better than him in the world at the moment, he is the best." Buttler scored 18 runs and was dismissed for a duck in England's first two matches against Afghanistan and Ireland respectively. He got off to a sedate start against the Kiwis and pressed the accelerator pedal as his innings progressed.

He remains consistent despite running at a strike rate of 150 - Aakash Chopra on Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler became England's highest run-scorer in T20I cricket. Chopra praised Buttler for being consistent despite batting aggressively. He elaborated: "He has the ability to play shots in areas where no one can. He remains consistent despite running at a strike rate of 150. He has a remarkable ability to score runs and finally he has got runs under his belt." Chopra also lauded for making his fellow opener's task easier. The reputed commentator stated: "This tournament was not good for openers and captains till now but things are changing slowly. Alex Hales was at the other end.
