England cricketer Jos Buttler secured a well-deserved century against Pakistan on day two of the third and final Test match between the two sides in Southampton on Saturday (August 22).
The wicketkeeper-batsman reached his ton in 189 deliveries, securing the three-figure digits with a punch towards point.
Buttler, who has been under some serious criticism recently, bagged his first Test century in almost two years. However, it was thanks to his match-winning 75 that England cruised to a nerve-wracking victory over Pakistan in the first Test of the three-match series.

Has won one game and gone a long way to not losing another.
Took courage for England to stick with him, but looks like he has cemented his place for India #ENGvPAK @bbctms
Michael Vaughan telling Jos Buttler that he should look to Matt prior to improve himself.

Michael; take your own advice and have a look at Andrew Strauss.
