@@prasithoudomvilay8454 And that’s why the ICC won’t and in my opinion shouldn’t change it. I’m also all for Bazball now I have more of an understanding of it. If that means it pleases those than don’t like 5-Day Tests, then England can just keep churning out 50 ways to get the result after Day 3.
Fantastic analysis..loved every bit! Hunour plus insightful. Wish Indian cricket had such a panel..the ones who are there today, both in commentary and in the panel, are an absolute disgrace. Bhogle being an exception
Even Bhogle has turned out to be a Bcci spokesman. Otherwise he will be in trouble again he knows it. Its pathetic in India no one can criticise or disagree or debate on anything.
That's some top tier analysis from Skull. I hadn't made the connection to Phil Hughes' death and the change that Baz brought about to how NZ played, but it is a compelling argument. I also, like Skull, am mostly a traditionalist when it comes to test cricket but I agree here too: the way you play test cricket matters. I don't know if it is necessarily turn-the-knob-to-11 from ball one, but I am old to remember how the Australian team of the late 90s and 00s played their cricket. It made a huge difference in the quality of the test cricket too. Test cricket needs tactical freshness. Even a mad scientist kind of approach. And the fact that ECB has given Baz the go-ahead to do this is a good sign. If it succeeds, it may change how we approach test cricket forever. If it fails, it will be a glorious failure that we might talk about for years to come. PS: the comment comparing Root and Head's cover drives is absolutely hilarious.
This was going on well before Phil Hughes passed away. When the great Australian side of the 2000's won 16 straight tests, they weren't playing for draws. This is not revolutionary stuff.
Kerry is spot on with his comments, "Bazball" is hit and run, used to play it in the backyard with all the other kids after school. Cricket is or should be five days of chess like decisions and strategies. I think it shows that England declaring early cost them the game, just my opinion. I don't like T20 or even one day matches that much but a test series between countries, in particular Australia and England is wonderful to watch. Yes, it can be slow etc and some say it will die out but I'd pay anything to be sitting at Lords when the next one is on, it's 100 pounds per day for a seat outside and about $700 pound to be member but there is a 29 year waiting list! . P.S. Was there last year and did the little tour through the Lords museum which holds the original "Ashes" urn and the museum itself is tiny and the walking around the ground and into the media stand and the members lounge and players change rooms. If you get the opportunity its a great couple of hours, all the names and scores are up on the wall in the change rooms such as Bradman, Keith Miller, Victor Trumper, Bill Woodfull everyone right back to 1893, plus Abbey road just around the corner and 221B Baker street as well. Enjoy the rest of the series everyone, good luck to all.
Buzzball is so entertaining. As a die hard Cricket fan I love the way England playing. Yeah maybe Aussie won the first match but we enjoyed The British thing.
Australia's final statement,after the ICC World Test series win. Is quite simply to beat England in England in this Ashes series and retain the Ashes. Champion Teams set goals and set out to tick them off. Backing Australia to tick off this Ashes series ⚱️.
So because Dennis Lillee and Glenn McGrath used to dish it out, our Aussie boys now have to sit their and cop that crap from that glorified off spinner (Robinson)? This is the problem with the sports media. Very few of them know anything about cricket as they've never played the game. Either abuse on the field is ok, or it is not. Regardless of who is giving it out. What happened 20-50 years ago has nothing to do with what happens today.
As an Englishman I agree with you wholeheartedly. Doesn’t matter what went before it should not be happening now. Pat Cummins is the best fast bowler in the world and he carries himself like a statesman across the game with genuine class. Bowlers do not need to abuse batsmen. The great Andy Roberts never said a word he simply let his bowling do the talking which was enough. Robinson should concentrate on putting another two yards of pace into his bowling not on his mouth.
How is Moeen Ali spraying his hand and the ball in his hand at 13:10 not ball tampering??? Where is the multiyear suspension and woundspraygate investigation?
If test cricket is about entertainment and not the variable intrigue involved in winning test matches against the Pomms, then who among us is willing to visit the cemeteries and apologize to the likes of Bradman and all his ilk for not appreciating their music. If I want entertainment, I'm not visiting a cricket paddock. I'll be rocking to Cold Chisel. Look! The real powder is still dry on bazzball. Let's just see how welded the Pomms are to bazzballing when they are 4 for 30. A true bazzballer would continue to entertain by rotating the strike till they are all out for under 100🤣
If you play cricket for 60 years, you will definitely end up with some sort of record, isn't it? 🤣🤣 Otherwise people will call you donkey instead of human. 😁 So, There's absolutely nothing to brag about.
Bazball is a PR story to excuse untalented POME`s to play like it's a 20_20 game. It against the internal logic of test cricket. Let them play baz ball and lose. Just let skull commentate that can make any game worth watching.
To be fair it's just playing to our strengths. We produce a lot of excellent white ball specialists these days so it's just using the resources we have in the best way possible. The PR side of things is more of a media invention.
Even the 2000-03 Aussies were pretty much playing bazball. The ultra aggressive approach the difference being the ruthlessness and the extreme high quality bowlers they had. Its only when that team started getting older and some retired that approach faded away.
@@SS-yr3ij That 00-03 team was very aggressive and dominant but they were still more conventional than this England team. It was before T20 was invented so they went at 4 an over on a good day, whereas this England side when they get a partnership going score at 7+ an over. Plus England score off T20 shots that didn't really exist 20 years ago, and do crazy (or stupid depending on outlook) things like declare early and elect to chase on a good pitch because that's the limited overs mentality - chasing.
Lol. England are going to get pumped at home whilst they haven’t won a test in australia since 2010 and we’re talking about what a great job they’re doing. Maybe these people just don’t like test cricket but they know it’s the best format so they keep coming back. Either way it’s hilarious watching people go on and on about the team that got pumped at home. Imagine if aus celebrated after india beat them at the gabba. The country would revolt. It just shows england have waved the white flag from the start. Really disappointing considering that playinng in front of home fans
To think it's been years now since Phil's passing and Kerry still gets choked up thinking about Phil, what a great man Kerry is.
I like most Aussie males of my era will watch skull every day of the week and twice on Sundays. A national treasure!
Skull's only point I don't agree is day-night tests. I think it's a change and introduces a new dimension. It's a positive thing for sure.
If you’re not wanting 5-Day Tests, just win the game before Day 5.
That test match proved me test cricket need 5 days its so enjoyable like nz vs eng nz won by 1 run on the last day

i think star sports has pretty balanced coverage. special Manjrekar has some good takes!
There is too much money involved and no one wants to say something that will end their career. They say what today's Indian fans want to gobble up.
Yes, Critical thinking especially self-critical thinking not a strong characteristic of Indian cricket
Shastri & Sunnyji are disgrace to cricket commentary😂😢

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN WHAT TIME THEY START SPEAKING ABOUT PHILLIP HUGHES
Buzzball is so entertaining. As a die hard Cricket fan I love the way England playing. Yeah maybe Aussie won the first match but we enjoyed The British thing.
Great to watch and hear you guys lots of humour with analysis of the game
The way he said Fortty.. lol
outstanding
"If you detach from consequence" sounds like Bhagwat Gita
Its been around way more older than gita or any religious books
Skull is a gem😂
Wheres candy ! Best part of show
So the poms have invented a new way to lose..
Spazball lives.
love skull
Skull 😂😂😂 john wick . Christ hes too good
Test cricket will die if it does not evolve, the traditionalist may hate it.. but it's watchable

Punter be angry not getting enough golf in
Ben stokes probably won't declare with a total of only 280 again playing Australia
Great video so funny
Can we talk about Warner?
Are you deaf? They did they said he played Bazball shot in the 1st innings and got out. 2nd innings he looked terrific but got a jaffa. Which is true.
💀 does me up
God damn, I miss Kerry firing on all cylinders, I think it being the winter, he's got a lot of pent up jokes that he needs to let out.
The Team that played Cricket won and the team that played Baseball lost the match. Congratulations to Australia beating overconfident England.
@@Shrug02win any day over entertainment
A player plays to win , not to be a joker. That's the joker's job
Except for Warner who got a good ball that he could do nothing different the rest all PLAYED POOR SHOTS. Nobody apart from Warner got a good ball.
Criminals are ahead at the moment on to the 2nd test.
Can the CRIMINAL thieves go 2 up.
Guess who will break Warne's Test match wickets tally soon, Jimmy Anderson against you Aussies!!!!!
If you play cricket for 60 years, you will definitely end up with some sort of record, isn't it? 🤣🤣 Otherwise people will call you donkey instead of human. 😁 So, There's absolutely nothing to brag about.
i would rather be classed as a whinger than a cheat.
👍
Why on earth does Kerry try to bullshit his way around D Warners form?? He has been terrible for 2/3 years now, he shouldn’t be in the team!
Well Skull, they feel the consequence now. It's ONE nil
Hows scary is ponting for 5 foot 3 but hahahaha
If England lose Ashes, then Bazball will die.
Bazball isn’t declaring on the 1st day. Bazball is just playing fast.
