England’s white-ball captain blazed six sixes — muscling one onto the roof of the Three Ws stand — and eight fours to underpin an eight-wicket win as his side went 2-0 up in the five-match T20 series.

Buttler took just three singles off his first 10 balls in his second innings since a four-month lay-off with a troublesome calf injury, getting off the mark with a bottom edge that narrowly missed leg stump.
