The holders were annihilated in Ahmedabad on Thursday Jos Buttler has played down England’s dismal performance in their Cricket World Cup opening match defeat to New Zealand and says the team remain positive despite being ‘very much outplayed’. England were completely dominated by the Kiwis in Ahmedabad on Thursday – who got some measure of revenge for the 2019 final – and won the match with nine wickets and 82 balls remaining.
It was a good wicket to bat on and I think it got better under lights. With the start they go off to, it was hard to build any pressure. ‘We will keep being positive and play our way. It shows you need good scores on the board to be able to defend them. ‘You can’t be too defensive. We just weren’t quite on with our execution. We were a long way short of our best but still made 280.
