Thakur to Buttler - FOUR, FOUR
Buttler is getting dangerous with every over. After hitting Chahal for a couple of sixes, there he goes again to score more runs against Thakur. Back-to-back boundaries to bring England back from loss of Jason Roy.

- His 3 dismissals by a spinner this series is his most by spinners in a series.

SIX! A cracking shot from Buttler, just like he played the first ball of Chahal's over. Tossed up delivery, Buttler picks it perfectly and belts it over long-on. Whatta Shot!

ENG: 23/1 after 3.3 overs
