Q: Either side of the breathtaking opening test of a much-anticipated Ashes series, almost all of the discourse has surrounded England’s style of play, allegedly referred to as “Bazball”.
But while the very mention of the ubiquitous term may cause numerous eyes to roll, I’m fascinated by how desperate some are to see it fail. There appears to be a legion of ex-players, journalists and fans, utterly determined to prove that such an unorthodox and radical method cannot possibly succeed in the storied surroundings of test cricket.
