Ashwin has not just slammed England’s batting collapse but also questioned the whole idea that taking unnecessary risks is acceptable in modern Test cricket. The former Indian all-rounder has boldly claimed that their Bazball approach is slowly turning harmful for England.

Is Bazball turning into a liability?
Ravichandran Ashwin said on his YouTube channel, “As a batting group, how reckless can you be? Because on the first day, you were knocked out for 172, and you lost five wickets in the space of 12 or 15 or maybe 20 runs. After that, your bowling attack wrestled the initiative back and gave you a 40-run lead. And your first job as a batting unit is to give your bowlers enough rest.”
Ravichandran Ashwin pointed out that England’s bowlers must have expected a long break after doing their job so well, but their batting collapse forced them to return to the field almost immediately to defend 204 runs that were always going to be too small a target against Australia in Perth.
Ashwin signed off by saying, “As Rahul (Dravid) bhai always says, give your bowlers overnight rest and see how your bowlers respond. Today, they came and cleaned up the last wicket. The England bowlers, I am sure, would have wanted to put their feet up, and in no time, they are back on the park looking to defend 200, which is paltry.”
