Former England captain Michael Vaughan believes Jos Buttler, who has been in smashing form of late both for his IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals and his country’s white-ball side, should be made the limited-overs skipper and should also open in Test matches.
While it is being widely believed that Buttler will become England’s white-ball skipper after Morgan announced international retirement, Vaughan thinks Buttler is also suited for the role of opener in Tests as he has the calmness one needs for that role.
He’s (Buttler) the best white-ball player in the world, he’s got a very smart cricket brain, and he’s got that calmness you need, wrote Vaughan in his column for the Telegraph.
