Re: English Cricket
England going to be around 100 runs short here. Just think how many they might have added in the last half hour on day 1.

The 30 or 40 runs they could and should have scored when they declared will cost them this match.

Bazball might work against crap teams but against the best team in the world, you need to adapt your tactics if needed.
