(Reuters) - England wicketkeeper Jos Buttler is "responding well to treatment" on his hip injury but remains a doubt for Friday's World Cup match against West Indies.

Buttler, 28, sustained "heavy bruising" on his right hip while batting and did not take to the field during the second innings as England beat Bangladesh by 106 runs on Saturday.
