England is currently in Pakistan for the historic seven-match T20I series. However, Jos Buttler has been sidelined and missed out on the series.
“I am progressing well,” Buttler told Sky Sports. “It would be nice to play but with the World Cup round the corner, we are taking a cautious approach.
Buttler added that he is fully fit but is very cautious ahead of the T20 World Cup.
“I am running a few drinks, getting the loads up, feeling good. I feel like if it was a World Cup game tomorrow I could play but I am being a bit cautious and taking it a bit slowly. If I had to, I could play.”
