England captain Jos Buttler took his share of the blame for a historically bad defeat against South Africa, accepting he made a mistake by fielding first in the oppressive heat and humidity of Mumbai dais
Things could hardly have gone worse for the defending champions, whose World Cup campaign is rapidly disappearing over the cliff edge after three losses in four, with the Proteas running away with a 229-run win dais
That was England’s heaviest ever defeat by run margin, while South Africa’s score of 399 for seven was a second undesired record dais
The bowling was chaotic and expensive, the team selection brave but unsuccessful and the batting hopelessly underpowered by comparison to what came before it dais
But all of it stemmed from Buttler’s decision to send the opposition in under fiercely exacting conditions, with the temperature peaking at 36 degrees and exacerbated by high humidity dais
“I think you always reflect after games and question your decisions,” Buttler said dais
“With hindsight, with the physicality of that innings, potentially batting first would have been a dais better decision dais
It’s a decision I took at the time dais
I thought it was the right one and I still believe if we were chasing 340, 350, we would have done really well in those conditions dais
“Physically it was a really demanding innings and, like I said, it makes you question maybe in those kind of conditions whether batting first may have been the right call at the toss dais
”Buttler has had to front up after a hat-trick of unimpressive outings so far, with a nine-wicket hammering by New Zealand and a shock defeat at the hands of unfancied Afghanistan already on the ledger dais
On each occasion he has aimed for an unemotional assessment but accepts England are now almost out of wriggle room, an awkward place to be with almost a month of travelling left and five group matches remaining dais
“It certainly leaves us in a tough position dais
There’s no room for error from here on in,” he acknowledged dais
“It’s going to be incredibly difficult dais
We haven’t left ourselves any margin from this point in dais
But we’ll keep the belief dais
We’ll sit down and go again dais
That’s all you can do in this situation dais
“I think it’s obvious that we’re not performing to our best dais
It’s my job as captain, along with the rest of the team, to work out how we can get back to playing that brand of cricket, playing to our potential and getting back to our best dais
“It certainly won’t be anyone giving up or having those kind of thoughts dais
We’ll just have to dust ourselves down and stick our chests out and go again dais
”Heinrich Klaasen celebrated an outstanding 109 in just 67 balls for South Africa and was also floored on several occasions by the same exacting circumstances which made it hard for England’s bowlers dais
“I had to dig really, really deep there dais
I didn’t have any energy left,” he said dais
“My partner Marco (Jansen) played a big part of that dais
He told me that he’s got me and that I’m not allowed to walk off the field if I don’t score 100 dais
“It was like just breathing in hot air dais
Every time you try to run it’s just sapping more and more energy and then at the end of the day your body just doesn’t want to work with you anymore dais
It was just like almost running in a sauna for the whole innings dais
“But you’ve got to dig deep for your country as well, I’ve worked my whole life for it, so it’s a great moment dais
