Buttler deserves an IPL contract.

Amazing Buttler isn't earning millions at the IPL. If he was an Australian with half the talent he would be

Some great batting from the England batsmen.

Buttler is the next England skipper – Kevin Pietersen.

Your next England captain is, @josbuttler! Believe me, that will work! He will captain how he bats & is incredibly calm under pressure!
