In his column for The Daily Mail, former captain of the England cricket team Nasser Hussain, claimed that Buttler and coach Mott are in a vulnerable situation.
“Buttler and head coach Matthew Mott are susceptible, no doubt about it. One bad World Cup is easy to forgive, especially if you started as the defending champions, but two disappointments would be more difficult to justify.
It is England’s responsibility to demonstrate their good qualities. They need to defeat Namibia and Oman, but they also need to defeat both convincingly enough to guarantee that their net run rate is higher than Scotland’s.
“After the tournament is complete, people should make any decisions regarding the coach and captain. If England can turn it on, they can postpone that moment until well beyond the weekend,” wrote Hussain.
Additionally, he advised England to move behind their abandoned match against Scotland and their 36-run loss to Australia and to approach their remaining games with a new perspective.
Small things like that have accumulated to make England appear worse than they actually are.
“I had a suspicion going into this competition that the West Indies wickets would assist pace-off bowlers. Because of this, I would have chosen Reece Topley—with his cutters and variations—for the two games in Barbados rather than Chris Jordan or Mark Wood, who is all about express pace.
