    He's not wrong...as much as I've enjoyed watching some of the performances under Stokes it does all seem a bit too relaxed and ' nice '. Its good to have an environment where players are encouraged to feel comfortable...but they can also become too comfortable. My concerns started when Stokes said' We are not a results based team'...now I think I know what he meant...they are focusing on the mindset, approach and on their skills...but still...this is international sport, its The Ashes and you are up against a battle hardened, tough Aussie side...time to get real and knuckle down

    • @dashmeetsingh9679
      @dashmeetsingh9679 Рік тому

      That statement from Stokes can be interpreted in many ways like : "We focus on process rather than results". Meaning if players are performing according to brief given then result shouldnt matter. This is a good philosophy, but this has to be matched by on-field actions. Bad fielding is putting more pressure on depleted bowling lineup, resulting in abysmal extras.

    As far as I know, the philosophy of test cricket is you defend with your bowling and attack with your field, just the opposite of T20 cricket.
    And this English team is all out attack team, which is not okay for test cricket. You can attack with your bat, but you cant just attack attack attack with your bowling as well... You need to be consistent, especially in these conditions with your bowling & can afford all out attack with your field.

I was miffed to see Baz and Stokes all smiles and shaking hands after the Wellington defeat in February, inexplicable after a defeat. It all felt too chummy - being unfazed after defeat is one, but being smiles all around ?! Even in the first test a couple of weeks ago, I hardly saw anyone wincing when defeat was near ( except perhaps Broad ). The bowling department ( both spin and pace ) needs an overhaul with sufficient bench strength - only Broad looked like someone that could take a wicket in the first test. The second test isn't turning out to be any different, although I hope for a very different result from the first. Can we have Wood for the next test please?
