World Cup winning cricketer Jos Buttler takes on baseball with World Series winner Chase Utley

[Music]
Utley rips one into right field oh it’s
a good start for the
Phillies Jos hey Jason pleasure man how
are you good great to meet
you high and on Butler has moved on to
84 what a player he is you ready uh to
play a little baseball at the 108 yeah
excited for it let’s go do it come
on for baseball you’re trying to hit it
hard you’re trying to hit it far more
power therefore distance therefore more
Applause I mean first try he hits it
right through the
machine there we go see in cricket
that’s good sliced it over Third Man for
six oh yes oh the double toe tap
amazing so we’re going to really ramp it
up
now oh my word man oh I saw it
nice
one I think it’s time to step it up
again take it to a live pitcher on the
field let’s do
it
nice oh best one of the day what are
some similarities or differences that
you’ve noticed between cricket and
baseball so the swing feels pretty
similar obviously some huge differences
it doesn’t bounce hardly any protective
equipment so the first few balls on the
machine swinging and missing a few fast
ones are suddenly like you know actually
could do with a little bit of protection
let’s do a little catching practice all
right this kid I would imagine is a
little bit different than what you used
to there you go
thanks easy
nice yeah same
again oh nice you’re getting the hang of
it felt quite natural actually being in
that position
woo nice well done cool that’s good it’s
easy all right so I thought you did a
fantastic job what was your experience
like I’ve loved it I think hitting is
the one that’s what I want to get better
at and do more of catching is a tough
role actually I can see that and I
appreciate it as a wicket keeper I’ve
had a great day and I hope you have a
brilliant time at the London series no I
appreciate it well done like I said and
good luck at the World Cup thank you
