Read our privacy policy Jos Buttler still holds a special place in his heart for ODIs, so much so that the England captain believes winning the 50-over World Cup ranks higher than its T20 equivalent. “I’ve always enjoyed 50-over cricket,” said Buttler, who has won both ODI and T20 World Cups. “If you can pit your best teams against each other and you put your best players out there, I think that’s the way to keep 50-over cricket relevant.” If you can pit your best teams against each other and you put your best players out there, I think that's the way to keep 50-over cricket relevant Jos Buttler Both sides will be close to full strength, with India welcoming back skipper Rohit Sharma and linchpin number three Virat Kohli, who missed the 4-1 T20 series win due to their retirements from the format. “We believe that’s the best way for us to win games of cricket and get the best out of the players,” Buttler, who is set for his first ODI since December 2023, added.
