JOS BUTTLER says he has been dreaming about lifting a World Cup for almost 30 years.
England captain Buttler used to pretend to raise trophies when he was little more than a toddler playing cricket in his back garden.
Now he has the opportunity to turn his childhood fantasies into glorious, historic reality.
Buttler this morning leads the England team against Pakistan in the Twenty20 World Cup final at the vast Melbourne Cricket Ground.
If England win, they will unify the two whiteball World Cups following their triumph in the 50-over version at home in 2019.
