Just had a mate describe Bazball as like playing Football Manager and adopting the Gung-ho tactic for 90 minutes in every game. Pretty accurate I'd say

Well; the tail may as well go out swinging, as employing a "block, block, block" tactic won't get us far. And if they're lucky, and connect with a few, we might fluke another 20 or 30 runs.

The irony of this series is that when they lose 5-0 it will kill Bazball and set test cricket back 10 years.

Or someone else will take on the concept, cut out the insipid bowling attack and suicidal wicket submission and be a very fun team that wins a lot.

I can’t say I enjoy the short stuff like this, no matter the team. Cricket feels ridiculously outdated in its policy regarding substitutes, and it’s high time teams were permitted to have a like-for-like replacement when there are injuries.
