Jos Buttler has x-ray on injured middle finger

Buttler picked up the injury in the field, diving to his left at gully attempting to take what would have been a spectacular catch to dismiss Virat Kohli.

The ECB confirmed the injury, saying that Buttler had travelled to a local hospital near Edgbaston to have the x-ray. Dom Bess, who made his debut in England’s last Test series against Pakistan earlier in the summer, has been on the field in his absence.

During Tea, England's management confirmed that there was no fracture, but that Buttler is unlikely to return today, and will continue to ice the injury.
