Champions Trophy: England legends urge team to move on from captain Jos Buttler
India TodayEngland legends and former captains Michael Atherton and Nasser Hussain believe Jos Buttler’s tenure as skipper has reached its end, particularly after England’s Champions Trophy semi-final hopes were crushed by a shocking defeat to Afghanistan. |AFG vs ENG: Highlights| Speaking to Sky Sports after the match, former England skipper Michael Atherton suggested that Buttler’s string of underwhelming performances as captain may prompt England to move in a different direction. He stated that the leadership role never quite suited Buttler but also urged critics to avoid unfair comparisons with former captain Eoin Morgan, who led England to their historic 2019 World Cup victory. “As far as captaincy goes, I don’t think Buttler has added that much to this England team, but it’s taken away from his batting.
