In Sam Curran's 95, Buttler saw shades of MS Dhoni

In pursuit of 330, England slumped to 168 for six at the midway stage but Sam, who came in to bat at No. 8, took them to the verge of an unlikely win with his counterattacking 95

England's stand-in skipper Jos Buttler saw shades of legendary finisher Mahendra Singh Dhoni in Sam Curran's valiant 95 not out in the third and final ODI against India here. In pursuit of 330, England slumped to 168 for six at the midway stage but Sam, who came in to bat at No. 8, took them to the verge of an unlikely win with his counterattacking knock. "Sam played an outstanding innings there and will take a lot from that moving forward, even though there's the disappointment of losing the game," Buttler said at the post-match press conference on Sunday night.
