First of all, attacking is something that McCullum and England did not invent, since the beginning of cricket, any player in any team will play like this. South Africa’s Barry Richards, Shaun Pollock’s grandfather Pollock, Dan Bradman, Gary Sobers, Everton Weeks, Roy Fredericks, Alvin Kalicharan, Viv Richards, Clive Lloyd, Gordon Greenidge, Gayle, Namur Kapil Dev, Krish Srikanth, Sandeep Patil, Sehwag, Azharuddin, Sachin Tendulkar, now Rishabh Pant, why even Lashman is attacking cricket, Australia’s Graham Wood, Rick Darling, Graham Yallab, first Matthew Hayden, Ricky Ponting, Gilchrist, Andrew Symonds, Sri Lanka’s Jayasuriya, Kaluvidharana, Kurusingha, Dilshan, Ranatunga, Aravinda T The likes of Silva are attacking cricket, whatever form it takes. Only one man, Botham, played in England. So he is a treasure for them.
Why once Gavaskar’s bat flew off a Malcolm Marshall ball, can you believe Sunil Gavaskar scored a 95-ball hundred against the West Indies in the next Delhi match!! So baseball seems to be just bullshit
This method is new for conservative England, this is the way in Australia under Steve Waugh, captain and coach Buchanan. Until then, Australia had set pitches where the opposition had a chance to win. After Steve Waugh came in, they made the entire batting pitch and put the opposition in, because Glenn McGraw and Shane Warne took 20 wickets on any pitch. They have the ability to take, so Steve Waugh took action and won 17 Tests in a row.
What happened after that, M’s route became a separate route through Pini. McCullum scored a world record 54-ball century in a one-match whitewash against Australia, but Australia didn’t score more than 500 in that match to beat New Zealand, so this is not a permanent option.
If our players like Sunil Gavaskar, Rahul Dravid, Sachin and Lashman were there in the Edgbaston Test match, India would have scored 600 runs in the first innings, then where will England win?
England have understood a team, their favorable bowling conditions often favor the foreign teams and England lose, so what they have decided is that they have just come to the John Buchanan method of batting pitches, destabilizing the opponents and psychologically exhausting them and then knocking them out with the bat.
It makes sense for the fans to joke that they are now attacking England and we are not the Netherlands.
