Buttler's bat inscription goes viral
A picture of the England wicket-keeper's bat is doing the rounds on social media with the bat handle displaying the words 'F*** it' written on it.
The words were scribbled on top of his bat's handle and Twitterati were quick to troll England's match-winner.
The cricketer did not bother to issue any clarification on this matter.
End winless run
England level series against Pakistan
Buttler's knock along side great bowling ensured that England drew level in the two-match series.
Pakistan had humiliated the hosts with a thumping 9-wicket victory at Lord's in the first test.
This win brought an end to England's win-less run in 8 Tests, having lost 6 of them.
Before this, England's last victory had come against West Indies at Lord's in September 2017.
