England captain Jos Buttler looked forward to working with new white ball coach Brendon McCullum.
On the eve of the five-match T20I series opener against India, Buttler said building the captain-coach alliance would be his priority.
“It’s not a new set-up because Baz (McCullum) has been around for a while and obviously there are a lot of players in this squad who have been with him in the Test set-up for a number of years already. Just looking forward to building that relationship in the white ball set-up,” said Buttler.
The England captain said the team management had not spoken about future big events and remained focussed on the present.
About the heavily loaded T20 schedule in the run-up to the 50-over Champions Trophy, Buttler said, “I’m not too worried about schedules or anything at the moment. I’m just looking forward to playing some matches.”
