Test head coach Brendon McCullum is looking to rejuvenate England's limited-overs teams after their surrender of both World Cup crowns, with captain Buttler now resuming his role as a specialist batter at number three.

"It's going to be a great series against a really top side in their own conditions. So loads to look forward to," Buttler said. "Phil Salt will keep wicket, he's obviously been playing brilliantly in T20 cricket for a while now. Ben Duckett will be with him at the top of the order.

"It's a really exciting tour coming to India with a full line up for us."

"The one thing he [Buttler] won't be doing in this series is keeping wicket, he's going to captain from the field," former New Zealand captain McCullum told a press conference on Monday.

"That's a really positive thing for us because it gives Jos the opportunity to have the last say with the bowler and to have that relationship build at that last second instead of being 22 yards away.

"We've got a really good squad; we've got lots of flexibility within the group. We've got heaps of options and it's about piecing it all together which gives us the best chance."
