Bazball Was Only Designed For Ashes: Ricky Ponting
Ricky Ponting: Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has argued that England's Bazball approach was specifically designed to win the Ashes in Australia. He also accused the team of being dishonest about their style and results in public statements.
Many experts and pundits share similar views, including Nasser Hussain, who mentioned that the English team has been working hard over the past three years to defeat Australia on Australian soil. However, Ponting told 7NEWS that England's aggressive style under Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes has always been focused on mastering Australian conditions, even if the team presents it as a long-term revolution.
“They're a side that have been together for two years (since the 2023 Ashes), building up to this. Bazball, as far as I'm concerned, and I know Brendon reasonably well, was only designed for this one series. Forget about everything that's happened over the past two years, it was all about having a group together and a style of play that can stand up and win Test matches in Australia. They've only done it four times in the past 25 years, and they are going to need to do it at least three times this summer, so I can't wait to see how they play,” Ponting said.
