Tom Banton hopes improved glovework can boost his England credentials

Tom Banton is eager to expand England’s wicketkeeper-batter talent pool even further as he wants to put more emphasis on his work behind the stumps and emulate Jos Buttler in the white-ball set-up. With Sam Billings omitted after a hectic past couple of weeks that saw him switch continents and formats, Banton took the gloves for the first time for England in a 20-run defeat to the West Indies in the third Twenty20. He went largely unnoticed as the Windies piled up 224 for five for their highest T20 score against England, but his biggest contribution came when thumping six sixes in a 39-ball 73 as the tourists fell short in Barbados.
