Jos Buttler Eager to Work with Brendon McCullum

England’s white-ball captain, Jos Buttler, has expressed his excitement about collaborating with Brendon McCullum, who recently took charge of England's teams in all three formats. Previously the head coach of England’s Test side, McCullum was appointed to oversee the entire setup earlier in September, including the white-ball squads.

Buttler, renowned for his aggressive style of play, mentioned that he shares a similar mindset with McCullum and is eager to tap into the former New Zealand captain's cricketing insights.

Speaking during England’s third T20I against Australia, Buttler remarked that although he already had some rapport with McCullum, he was looking forward to deepening their connection. He explained that McCullum’s guidance would be invaluable for his growth as captain, stating, "I’m excited to dig into his cricketing brain and gain new perspectives."

Buttler added that he and McCullum shared a common vision for the game but was keen on learning from McCullum’s unique insights. For Buttler, this next phase of his career is about making it the most enjoyable, and he emphasised his focus on helping his teammates reach their full potential, especially with two major events on the horizon.
