I'm against Cornwall being in the team as being that big as a professionalsportsman screams rank unprofessionalism, but holy crap that's a rude catch.

Buttler at 6 and a lot of responsibility, a failure here could mean the end.

some people are genetic fatties. it's not pc to say, but cornwall is extremely unlikely to ever look like an athlete no matter how hard he tries.

Terrible from Dowrich to let Buttler off strike like that. Buttler's a prime candidate for chopping one onto the stumps from Gabriel.

Getting takeaway at a restaurant, so I'm watching this without sound.

Are they really comparing Buttler to Gilchrist? In what context?

There's no real reason why Buttler should not succeed in Test cricket - he's nimble on his feet, has excellent hand eye, solid technique and loads of time to play the ball.

This is pure ****ing horse ****, **** off. There is no excuse for a professional sportsperson to look like that. He just needs to get onto a diet that isn't stuffed full of sugar and processed crap and be disciplined with it for a few months so his poor hormone system can normalise it's response to food and how his body deals with the energy coming in.

Maybe they mean Buttler can be as good as Gilchrist when Gilly played as a right hander as he will never be as good as left handed Gilly.

Who gives a **** if he's fat as long as he can do what's asked of him. This is Test cricket, they can always put him in slips where he doesn't need to run. As long as he can wheel away for 25 overs a day when needed, it's all that matters. See Herath, Rangana

It was a joke how fat Herath was too, but he was never this outrageously overweight, just tubby.
