T20 World Cup: 'He Is A Class Player, Incredibly Impressive Innings', Buttler On Baitstow's 48* Vs WI
T20 World Cup: England captain Jos Buttler has hailed Jonny Bairstow as a "class player" and termed his unbeaten 48* off 26 knock as "incredibly impressive innings" after a dominant eight-wicket victory against West Indies in the Super Eight stage of the T20 World Cup 2024 in Gros Islet.
Chasing a formidable target of 181, England achieved it with ease, thanks to an unbeaten 87 from Phil Salt and a blistering 26-ball 48 not out from Bairstow. The pair added 97 off just 44 balls, guiding England to victory with 2.3 overs to spare.
"That was a really good performance from us," Buttler said during the post-match presentation. "We planned really well, we've been practising well and executed both with the bat and ball and deserved to win. I thought we bowled really well to restrict such a powerful batting line-up, such great six-hitters especially. [It was a] decent score, and you had to play well to chase it down."
