After bazball has been introduced plz tell me how many centuries has Root scored? After Alistair Cook I really look upto Joe Root and I feel very bad seeing a player of his stature getting out to playing shots like these. When he can play beautiful drives why does he need to sweep ! You should see his innings in the last 6 years.. must watch.. till bazball started off. It's way he is getting out trying to force the runs which he would have otherwise scored much easily and at his comfort.

Bazzball was already played in the 70s and 80s by the West Indies. A team needs technically correct batsmen for that not sloggers like the present ENG lot. Players like Lloyds, Fredricks, Richards, Greenidge who could read the length so early with magic footwork. Difference between attacking batting and slogging.

One of the thing about Bazball no one talked about, especially these English pundits, is that for Bazball you need ODI kind of flat tracks. They had to trim off all green from English tracks to play Bazball Ashes. So bringing back crowd in by killing the skills in Test? No thank you !

Big fan of this podcast and always wait for it. Such an impartial dignified discussion..just love it.. thank you!!

Nass and Arthers! Best analysts in the world! LOVE to hear them any day of the year! Laced with humor and barbs at each other, the quality of analysis is just top notch! These 2, unlike most commentators, used to "predict" the possible next move by the fielding skipper on field, while commentating, and they used to predict it right too! It is very easy to commentate on what you are seeing. Even a Harsha Bhogle can do it. But to place themselves in the captain's shoes from the com-box and suggest fielding positions or plays, is just just amazing and both these gentlemen have done it many many times. Bazzball is still the best way forward. I hope the famous old fashioned, stiff upper-lippers don't thwart it and go ballistic criticizing Ben and Co. Go Indi Of A! Pummel the English 4-1:-)

the reason they play this so called Bazball stuff is also because of the fact that they don't have a grt defensive game barring joe root and to some extent Crawley and Stokes....It has helped a lot of their players as well to be honest, look how Zak crawley has blossomed as an opener from the way he was earlier under Joe Root for example
