England captain Jos Buttler says his team can still be a 'dangerous' force in the upcoming Champions Trophy despite suffering a 3-0 ODI series defeat against India. Despite a disappointing tour, Buttler believes England's potential and the lessons learned from India will make them a threat in the tournament.
AHMEDABAD – Captain Jos Buttler on Wednesday said England can be a "dangerous team" in the upcoming Champions Trophy despite their 3-0 ODI whitewash in India.
Buttler said the recent string of defeats against a top-class India -- ranked number one in ODIs -- hasn't dented their confidence ahead of the eight-nation tournament. He said, "But I think the fact we're not anywhere near our potential yet or playing individually or collectively where we know we can be gives us something to look forward to, believe we can get there and be a dangerous team in the Champions Trophy."
Indian left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja took six wickets in his two outings and was ably supported by Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel."As I said, simply we have to be better," said Buttler. "We have to be very confident in all the guys' games against spin. Guys have all the shots."
