England won’t be underestimating Scotland in T20 World Cup opener - Buttler
Jos Buttler

JOS BUTTLER has promised his England side will bring “100 per cent intensity” when they kick off their T20 World Cup defence against neighbours Scotland.

Tomorrow’s clash in Barbados will be the first ever 20-over international between the two nations and the first meeting of any kind since 2018, when the Scots sprung a huge ODI upset at The Grange in Edinburgh.

England will nevertheless go in as heavy favourites in their Group B opener and Buttler wants his players to give everything they have got to get the job done.
