Title: Blast 20/20

If Billings is included in the 20/20 side surely he should keep behind the wicket instead of Butler, if not another top order batsman should be picked .

Billings is a good fielder though.

Plus he can be destructive with the bat. 

I can see the rationale.

More bizarre Buttler injured and replaced by Bairstow behind the stumps for the last 50/50 , and not Billings . Gives the wrong impression regards Billings wicket keeping capabilities .

...whilst Bairstow wins us the match with the bat. Well, at least we have plenty of competition for places.
