England suffered a seven-wicket defeat in first of five T20Is in series vs India; tourists were bowled out for 132 with Jos Buttlers 68 the highest score; white-ball assignments for England include tour of India,

England's new white-ball era under Brendon McCullum began on a bum note as India drew first blood in the five-match T20 series with a comprehensive seven-wicket victory in Kolkata. McCullum has urged England to be "really watchable" under his stewardship as all-format head coach but only Jos Buttler got the memo as his 68 off 44 balls was over half of England's subpar 132 all out.

To unburden his captain Jos Buttler and unlock his vast potential, Brendon McCullum has alleviated him of keeping wickets.
