For England Jos Butlerâs injury could have proven to be a headache for the team as he was injured during the game against Bangladesh. The wicket-keeping duties could now lie with Jonny Bairstow. However, the team later clarified that he is fit to play the game. âYes, he's fine. He'll be taking part in today's practice fully. It was a little bit precautionary the other day. He said he could have kept, but he wasn't really sure if he would be able to run after a high catch," said England coach Trevor Bayliss while addressing the press ahead of the game.
