Nasser: Pietersen could be key for 'second coming' of Banton

Nasser Hussain has lauded the "second coming" of England batter Tom Banton and says the appointment of new white-ball mentor Kevin Pietersen could be key to his development in the middle order.

Banton top-scored for England with an unbeaten 52 off 24 balls in an impressive innings, combining well with skipper Harry Brook (23 off 8) after Jos Buttler (30 off 16) had become the first player to make 15,000 T20 runs - as the home side sauntered past Sri Lanka's modest 145-9 with 7.5 overs to spare.
