T20: Buttler Fit For Tournament In Australia

England captain Jos Buttler declared himself fit for Sunday's opening Twenty20 International against Australia.

Buttler, watched from the sidelines as England beat Pakistan 4-3 before flying into Australia, where they play three 20-overs matches against the world champions.

"I'm back to 100 per cent. Had a good time in Pakistan rehabbing, probably could have played earlier, but with the World Cup around the corner, it was the right thing to do," he told reporters.

Buttler's return to the playing XI means Alex Hales and Phil Salt would vie with each other for the second opener's slot.
