Jos Buttler and his first ball Ducks in T20Is

Jos Buttler started off on a losing note as England's full-time white-ball captain as India thumped the hosts by a good margin of 50 runs in the first T20I of the 3-match series at Southampton. Power hitters in the line-up failing to make a contribution attributed to England's defeat at Southampton!

Jason Roy scored just 4 runs from 16 deliveries while both the captain Jos Buttler and Liam Livingstone have been dismissed for Ducks! The England captain was dismissed for a Golden Duck (first-ball Duck) to add even more salt to his injury!

Indian pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar was the bowler to dismiss Buttler for a golden duck in this first T20I. Overall, this is the fifth time he has been dismissed for a Duck in T20Is while three of those instances were golden ducks!

Incidentally, Bhuvneshwar already dismissed Buttler for a golden duck earlier at Ahmedabad in March last year! Australia's Fawad Ahmed was the other bowler to dismiss Buttler for a golden duck in August 2013!
