Buttler said after the match, “We respect America and we talked about if we bat fast, we will do very well. After playing a few overs, we tried to hit quick shots in the air.

Buttler praised the bowling efforts of leg-spinner Adil Rashid (2 wickets for 13 runs) and Liam Livingstone (1 wicket for 24 runs).

He said, “Adil bowled brilliantly. Livy also bowled well together. When you’re not bowling in a match and then all of a sudden you have to bowl four overs, it’s tough, so give him credit for being prepared.

The England captain also praised the bowling of the returning Jordan, who took four wickets in five balls, including a hat-trick in the 19th over, dismissing the US tail-enders as the US team were bundled out for 115 in 18.5 overs.

“We had better options,” he said. We have included Jordan to add depth to our batting and his hat-trick in the World Cup is a brilliant effort.
