Buttler hits brutal 15-ball fifty in T10 League
England white-ball captain Jos Buttler walloped a 15-ball fifty as Deccan Gladiators beat Chennai Braves by seven wickets in the Abu Dhabi T10 League.
Buttler came to the crease with Gladiators 37-2, in pursuit of 142, but made an unbeaten 62 off 24 balls to see the two-time champions home with two balls to spare.
He shared 100 with Somerset's Tom Kohler-Cadmore, who made 51 off 24 balls, for the third wicket.
Braves had earlier made 141-2, with Australia's Chris Lynn making 68 not out off 28 balls and South Africa's Rassie van der Dussen 62 off 29.
Buttler, who is playing in the tournament for the first time, is one of more than 20 English players to be featuring.
