Jos Buttler, the disappointed England captain, expressed his team’s frustration over their lack of execution and batting woes following a challenging loss to India.<\/p>\n

Buttler said his side did not execute their plans and admitted they failed with the willow.<\/p>\n

“Very disappointed. At the halfway stage, chasing 230, we would have fancied ourselves. Same old story. Very disappointed. I wasn’t sure about the dew, the gut failed said we should chase,” he said.<\/p>\n

“I think whichever way you want to go, you have to be committed. It’s all about execution. It is. The answer is on a postcard, I think. It was a great start in the powerplay by the bowlers, the guys found some movement.”<\/p>\n

“The ground fielding was good. But the way we batted, we didn’t back that up.”<\/p>\n

The top seven teams after the league stage of this World Cup will join hosts Pakistan in the 2025 Champions Trophy. England are languishing at the bottom of the table.<\/p>\n

Asked about that, Buttler said, “Yeah, we are aware of that and there’s still lot to play for.”<\/p>\n
