By Richard Gibson For MailonlinePublished: 08:09 EDT, 25 June 2021 | Updated: 09:58 EDT, 25 June 2021Jos Buttler could have already made his last white-ball appearance of the summer for England after suffering a torn right calf in his first. MRI scans revealed a low-grade tear in the muscle after a man-of-the-match, unbeaten 68 in Cardiff on Wednesday put Eoin Morgan’s team on course for a series victory sealed 24 hours later on the same ground. In the short term, his absence will continue to give opportunities to others. ‘I started off as an opener and then moved down.
