England should resist any urge to recall Jos Buttler from the IPL and pick him for the first Test against Sri Lanka, says Nick Knight. James Taylors enforced retirement has opened up a spot in Englands middle order, with one possible option to promote Jonny Bairstow up to No 5 and hand Buttler the gloves. Pundits pick England squad Who would our experts play against Sri Lanka? However, Sky Sports pundit Knight reckons Buttler - who lost his spot as England wicketkeeper to Bairstow during the series against Pakistan in the UAE late last year - should continue to develop his game with Mumbai Indians. Whats best for his development now is for him to be where he is, the former England batsman said of Buttler, who is being coached at Mumbai by Ricky Ponting and teaming with the likes of Rohit Sharma and Kieron Pollard. Nick Knight has selected Gary Ballance at No 5 in his England Test team He is around star names and different conditions, which will stay with him for the rest of his career, so I think he is in the right place.I have no doubt that down the line, whether thats six months or a year, that he will be a Test match cricketer - he has all the skills, although it may take him a bit of time to find the right tempo to bat at in Test cricket.For consistency of selection and while he carries on doing what he has done, I would stick with Bairstow batting somewhere in the top six or seven and keeping the gloves in hand. Buttlers top score in his 10 IPL innings to date is the quick-fire 41 from 22 balls he lashed against Kolkata Knight Riders on his second appearance.He will feel like he hasnt announced himself yet, Knight added of Buttler, who has been batting at No 4 and 5 for his franchise since being picked up in the IPL auction for around £385,000.When he got 41 in his second game I thought it might allow him to kick on but he hasnt really done that. Jos Buttler has shown flashes of his skills in the IPL We have to remember, though, that while we have such high expectations of Jos from what we have seen with England, this is a whole new environment for himPlayers will tell you that there is nothing better than going into a dressing room where everyone knows you and you have nothing to prove.Here Jos will feel he has something to prove and want to justify his fee.Watch Englands Test series with Sri Lanka live on Sky Sports 2, starting with the first game, at Headingley, from 10am on Thursday, May 19.You can also catch each and every IPL game, live on Sky Sports.

Tim Cahills first major match for A-League club Melbourne City will go untelevised.City have been drawn against the Western Sydney Wanderers in the only clash between two A-League clubs in the quarter finals of the FFA Cup at AAMI Park on September 21.Given the weight of the match, its likely to be Cahills first full match for the club after he played as a second-half substitute against the Brisbane Strikers earlier this month.However, the concurrent clash between Blacktown City and Sydney FC will be broadcast live on Fox Sports, with Cahills appearance relegated to internet streaming and Apple TV.Head of the A-League Greg ORourke said there were clear reasons for why the Melbourne City game was not the match being broadcast,.The Westfield FFA Cup is all about providing the opportunity for grassroots and semi-professional clubs to play against the giants of the Hyundai A-League, ORourke said.A match that pits the current National Premier Leagues Chhampions of Australia against Sydney FC in their home state is delivering on this and for this reason the Fox Sports broadcast match on the opening night of the quarter-finals will be the Cup tie between Blacktown City and Sydney FC.ddddddddddddahills debut off the bench for City was also televised in the round-of-16, while neither Sydney FC or Blacktown have had a game televised so far in the competition.The match will be Blacktowns first of the tournament against an A-League club, having beaten fellow Sydney NPL sides Sydney United 58 FC and Bonnyrigg White Eagles to reach the final eight.Meanwhile the other quarter-finals will feature Melbourne Victory taking on Bentleigh Greens on September 27, the same night Canberra Olympic host Green Gully, who earlier knocked out Central Coast Mariners, in the untelevised match.
