News India Live, Digital Desk: Big Statement by Mohammad Kaif: After England’s crushing defeat in the first Test against India, questions have begun to raise questions on the strategy of ‘Badzball’ in the cricket world and the captaincy of Ben Stokes. In this episode, former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif has given a big statement, which has sparked a debate among cricket fans. Questioning the captaincy of Ben Stokes directly, Kaif has said that ‘Badzball’ is just a ‘hyp’ and the captaincy does not seem to be the power in Stokes.

Mohammad Kaif said, “There is a lot of talk about Ben Stokes, but I do not see anything special under his captaincy. The exaggerated as much as the ‘Badball’ has been introduced is just a hip.” Targeting England’s strategy, Kaif said that even when the pitch was helpful for the spinners, England tried to play aggressive, which proved to be expensive for him.

He further said that everything does not happen to play only aggressive in Test cricket. It is very important to understand the circumstances and make a strategy accordingly. India showed how with restraint and patiently played, while England continued to take an aggressive stance without thinking.

Kaif’s statement is also important because ‘Bazball’ had become synonymous with English cricket for some time, and it also gave him success in a few matches. But this strategy flopped badly on Indian pitches and in front of Indian bowlers.

India defeated England in a one -sided manner in the first Test, which faded the brightness of ‘Bazball’. Now it has to be seen what changes in their strategy in the second Test, Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum. This direct attack by Mohammad Kaif will give a new weapon to the critics of ‘Bazball’ and will increase the pressure on England in the upcoming matches.
