England's captain, Jos Buttler, reflects on the disappointment of their lackluster defense of the 50-over World Cup last year, acknowledging that their "pride was dented" after failing to advance beyond the group stage in India, securing only a seventh-place finish with six defeats in nine matches.

As they 

prepare for their upcoming T20 World Cup defense starting on June 4th against Scotland at the Kensington Oval in Barbados, Buttler emphasizes the need to move forward and learn from past experiences. He sees the new T20 format as a fresh opportunity to redeem themselves, expressing a determination to perform better.

Despite concerns about poor weather forecast for the opening match of the four-match T20 series against Pakistan at Headingley on Wednesday, Buttler remains focused on the task ahead. While bowlers Mark Wood and all-rounder Liam Livingstone are sidelined due to knee issues, the return of fast bowler Jofra Archer, pending weather conditions, is anticipated to bolster England's lineup.

Buttler highlights Archer's pace and impact, noting the challenge he poses to batsmen and expressing excitement at his return to the squad after an absence since March.
