Jos Buttler, the England captain, will look to take Eoin Morgan’s legacy ahead and help his team retain the World Cup title in the 2023 World Cup. The English side is one of the favourites in this tournament and Buttler’s responsibility will be to play quality cricket and lead the team from the front.

As a batter, he will bolster the team with his batting in the middle order but along with that, he will be crucial with his keeping gloves as well. In current times, Buttler is one of the best wicketkeepers in the world when it comes to technique. In this tournament, he will look to make an essential contribution to his side with his exceptional keeping skills. 

Despite having someone like Jonny Bairstow in England’s ranks, England’s former captain Eoin Morgan always preferred Buttler as a wicketkeeper in the squad. In his 11-year ODI career, Buttler has executed 250 dismissals (215 catches and 35 stumpings) as a wicketkeeper in 166 one-day innings. With these numbers, he is the most successful wicketkeeper for England in the ODI format of the sport.
