England cricket team captain Jos Buttler has stated that the playing conditions here will be different, but many players have participated in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) and have shared their experiences.  

Speaking in Lahore, Buttler expressed his excitement for the upcoming match, saying that the team is fully prepared. "We had a great opportunity to train here, and we also had training sessions in Abu Dhabi before arriving in Lahore," he said.  

The wicketkeeper-batter praised young cricketer Jamie Smith, calling him a talented player who is ready to take on responsibility. He also confirmed that fast bowler Jofra Archer is fully fit and eager to play in the upcoming match.  

Discussing his own performance, Buttler said he is satisfied with his form and looking forward to the Champions Trophy. "We are working hard despite recent results not going in our favor, but we have built a strong group," he added.  

He acknowledged that Australia is a strong side and that their match will be competitive. "Australia will miss their three fast bowlers, but they always play attacking cricket. It will be an exciting contest in the Champions Trophy," he remarked.  

Expressing his enthusiasm about playing in Pakistan, Buttler said, "I’m thrilled to be here for the Champions Trophy. The pitch looks good, and we have seen high-scoring matches in the tri-series. We have planned accordingly."  

It is worth mentioning that in the ICC Champions Trophy, England will face Australia at Gaddafi Stadium tomorrow at 2 PM.
