Jos Buttler MBE's advice and strategy are crucial in the 4CAST collective.

Arguably England's first global T20 superstar, the wicket-keeper-batsman has brought his country's limited-overs batting into the 21st century.

He is England's highest white-ball run scorer and is one of only four Englishmen to score a T20I century, while as a wicket-keeper he holds the England T20I record for most dismissals.

The latter is a feat he has matched in the ODI format, too. Along with Adil Rashid, Buttler also holds the ODI world record for the highest seventh-wicket stand (177 v New Zealand).

His influence on the ODI side saw him transform a group-stage exit at the 2015 World Cup into a triumph on home soil four years later. His efforts with the bat and gloves were crucial to England's Super-Over victory in the final.

After seven years as Eoin Morgan’s trusted deputy, Buttler was named England's white-ball captain in 2022 and took centre stage for their T20 World Cup triumph later that year.

He scored 80 not out as part of a record opening stand of 170 with Alex Hales in the semi-final, and a quickfire 26 from 17 in the final as he became only the second England captain to win a T20 World Cup.

A superstar in T20 franchise cricket, Buttler's success has taken him from Australia and Bangladesh to South Africa and India, where he scored the second-highest seasonal tally in IPL history (863).

WIth Rajasthan Royals, he won the Orange Cap for the competition's most valuable player, with the most sixes (45) and fours (83) during the 2022 edition. He also became the first overseas player to score four centuries in a single IPL season, and only the second in the competition's history after Virat Kohli.

Buttler was awarded an MBE in the 2020 New Year Honours for services to cricket, and his 2021 performances saw him nominated for the ICC Men's T20I Cricketer of the Year. He was also named in the council's Team of the Year.
