Can struggling Jos Buttler use IPL experience in T20 World Cup semi-final vs India?

England cricket team batter Jos Buttler has found himself at a point of concern following a string of poor performances in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2026. So far, the veteran campaigner has registered scores of 26, 21, 3, 3, 7, 20, 0 in the ongoing marquee tournament, failing to fulfill the expectations. Buttler’s struggles have not only put pressure on the rest of the batters but have also questioned his ability to perform against a seasoned India unit in the semi-final, where he faces bowlers whom he has already gone head-to-head with multiple times in the past in the IPL.

    When we talk about the results against Buttler’s face-off against the Indian bowlers, there are mixed results. Against spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, he has been dismissed 2 times in T20Is and the same amount in IPL as well. He averages just 5 against the premium Indian pacers in T20Is.

    Coming to Arshdeep Singh, Buttler has a superior record in T20Is, boasting of a strike rate of 146.7. In IPL, he has been dismissed just one by the PBKS pacer. Against Hardik Pandya, he has been dismissed twice in IPL.

    Overall, Buttler has ample experience of playing in Mumbai but faces a stiff challenge, given his form and record against the current Indian bowlers. In the T20 World Cup semi-final on Thursday, England will be hoping that the opener goes all guns blazing.
