The platform for victory was laid by Brook’s predecessor as Jos Buttler, freed from the cares of captaincy, made a brilliant 96 from 59 balls, his second-highest score in 135 T20 internationals.

Cameron Norrie’s encouraging clay-court run came to an abrupt end with a 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 defeat to Novak Djokovic, the three-times French Open champion who is finding form at the right time to mount a challenge for a 25th grand-slam title.
