3rd Test: Ben Stokes Defends England's Tactics; Says They Will Continue To Push The Scoring
While Duckett scored 153, none of the remaining batters failed to even reach 50. Players like Joe Root, Ben Foakes, and Ollie Pope, who were looking good for big scores, perished trying to push the scoring rate as per the Bazball tactics. Stokes said that sometimes such tactics don't work out, but they will continue to pursue it because what matters more to them is the opinion in the dressing room and not the critics.
"Ben Duckett played an unbelievable innings, that was the tone we wanted to set with the bat (in the first innings). It was about identifying opportunities to score and push up to their total. With how the wicket was going we wanted to push it on as much as we could but sometimes that doesn't work out. Opinions in the dressing room are the ones that matter to us," said Ben Stokes during the post-match presentation on Sunday.
