The Ashes 2023

Does Bazball mean they won't even try to stem run flow and hand over the win to the Aussies?

Green is playing a match winning knock.

KP will credit that to  IPL

Out

[gattaca]

Khawaja will be gone soon England might win this.

[vvvslaxman]

Matter of time. Pathetic batting by Green. Getting stuck on the crease like a stone.

Reward for attacking the stumps every single ball.

Robinson has terrific avg and he has won tests in Pakistan of all places.

[vvvslaxman]

I remember a similar ball Robinson bowled to Babar, he left it alone and got cleaned up.

That is what we also did. A bit too much. Attacking the stumps is not a good strategy in all conditions. 

The way he got out was a very odi way of getting out.

Intelligent bowler. He i another guy who has learnt how to set up batsman. He typically mixes incoming ball and straight ones in between he slips an yorker. Having ideas is one thing. But executing is another thing

The way you attack the stumps can be different. Often times Robinson brings the ball from outside the off stump to stumps. So batsman can't be certain it is straight enough. Babar left alone and got bowled. Ishant is the only one who has that ability.

The guy who is stuck is Khawaja. Regularly hitting loose deliveries and long hops to the fielder. 

[putrevus]

Root is mini version of Sachin, he can bowl important overs with his team losing much. Such an asset to have batsmen who could bowl back then we had Sehwag, Ganguly also.

The top of off line of attack for a right arm seamer is the most orthodox one in cricket. Every coach will teach you that from grassroots level cricket.

Negative batting. Enough with the blockathon already. Cummins needs to be canned from captaincy.

Indian often starts at middle stump and hones towards leg stump. That is why they get punished.

[vvvslaxman]

Test match bowling is an art.  You must learn how to set up batsmen. You have enough time in your hands to set up players.  Thsi is where Bazball worked for England. They did not allow bowlers to set them up.

[Kothili]

Really meek batting.
