England secured a 51-run victory over Sri Lanka in the T20 World Cup Super 8s clash, but concerns linger over Jos Buttler's batting form. The former captain averaged just 12 in the tournament, with a lowest score of seven off 14 balls against Sri Lanka.

His struggles continued as he was dismissed lbw while attempting a reverse sweep, highlighting inconsistency in his typically aggressive style. Despite this, England's opening partnership with Phil Salt (62 off 40) laid a strong foundation, while Will Jacks emerged as a critical all-round asset, scoring 21 off 14 balls and taking three key wickets in the powerplay.
