Nasser Hussain Urges England To Avoid 'this Is The Way We Play' Mantra
Niranjan Shah Stadium: Former captain Nasser Hussain has urged England to not fall back on their previous ‘this is the way we play’ method of playing Test cricket, and has called upon the batters to step up if they are to square the ongoing series against India.
England conceded a 126-run lead to India and were put under the pump in all departments by the hosts’ to lose the match by 434 runs inside four days at the Niranjan Shah Stadium. England are now 2-1 behind in the five-match series against India, with the fourth Test at Ranchi to begin from Friday.
"They've been successful and they've been entertaining. One bad game doesn't undermine the entire strategy. But that isn't to say they can't be smarter. You can't just fall back on the old 'this is the way we play' mantra, because Test cricket is all about adapting to conditions - especially in India, where the nature of the pitch can change almost overnight during the course of a five-day Test.
