The former all-rounder believes that Indian conditions would suit him.
“I think Jos Buttler will be the leading run-scorer,” Jacques Kallis said. “An outside call, but I fancy him in those conditions. Along with England having a good World Cup, I think, um, he’s going to be the one guy that stands up.”
