Domaine de Grand Pré’s Recipe for Award-Winning Service and Hospitality | SaltWireAHMEDABAD, India - Captain Jos Buttler said his own lack of form with the bat hurt England at the 50-overs World Cup after their title defence crumbled following a 33-run defeat by Ashes rivals Australia on Saturday.
White-ball stalwart Buttler has not managed a single half-century in seven matches so far, while England have reached a 200-plus total only twice in their last five matches, all of which they lost. "Coming into the tournament I felt in a great space. So to have not played as well as I can in such a pivotal role is disappointing.Having won the T20 World Cup in 2022, England arrived in India as one of the pre-tournament favourites, but their batting has been a huge letdown in the tournament."To be stood in this position having arrived in India with high hopes is incredibly tough and disappointing. It hurts a lot.
"We've let ourselves down. We've let down people at home, who support us through thick and thin and we wear that on our own shoulders."
