Jos Buttler put his 2019 World Cup finals jersey up for auction to raise funds

The jersey that Jos Buttler wore during the finals is one of the iconic memorabilia’s of 2019 World Cup. This was the one Buttler was wearing when he took the throw from Jason Roy and dismisses Martin Guptill winning the World Cup. In fact, he says that he did not take off the jersey until 7:00am next morning.

“The 50 overs of fielding and the Super Over, that’s the shirt. It smells pretty authentic. I probably took it off about seven o’clock the next morning. They were great times – those times in the dressing-room and we headed back to the hotel bar with everyone still in full kit. I don’t think anyone was wearing spikes but everyone in their full kit. It’s seen it all, that shirt.”
