ENGLAND'S T20 players rallied around Jos Buttler after they were humbled again by India.
The country's new skipper suffered a second successive defeat as the tourists cruised to a comfortable 49-run victory setting up a series whitewash if they can make it a treble at Trent Bridge today.
Buttler has spoken of his admiration for 'Bazball' the aggressive approach adopted by new Test coach Brendon McCullum and captain Ben Stokes that has reaped successful reward.
But two flops on home soil have raised questions if it is the right plan of attack.
Moeen Ali said: "The discussions we have are to keep backing ourselves.
"It's going to take time. We've got some new players in the side.
"Obviously, we don't want to keep losing, but Jos is cool with it.
This was not the introduction to white-ball captaincy that Buttler had imagined.
On a ground where England had chased down a record total in a Test less than one week ago, Rohit Sharma and his men turned the tables in emphatic fashion at Edgbaston.
