Jos Buttler has stood by England’s determination to deviate from the tried and trusted regardless of shedding to Bangladesh, who prevented a one-day worldwide sequence whitewash with a 50-run win at Chattogram.
There was a barely experimental really feel to this ‘lifeless’ rubber on Monday as Rehan Ahmed, on debut, was the one Englishman to bowl his full allocation, whereas champion legspinner Adil Rashid despatched down simply 5 overs.
Sam Curran was additionally promoted to quantity 5 within the batting order, having featured completely at seven or eight in his earlier 15 ODIs, pushed up forward of England captain Buttler and his deputy Moeen Ali.

Having sealed a 2-1 series win, England now do not have another ODI lined up until September, when the defence of their World Cup crown in India will be a matter of weeks away.
