Legendary Australian cricketer Ricky Ponting said England’s ‘Bazball’ approach had left the Australians a befuddled group during the Ashes, which saw the Englishmen making a remarkable comeback from 0-2 down. England bounced back to make the series scoreline 2-2 with wins in the third Test at Headingley and in the fifth Test at the Oval. The rain-marred fourth Test at Manchester ended in a draw.

Talking to SEN Radio, Ponting explained, “The two contrasting styles of play were great to sit back and watch. There was a lot of talk about Bazball and how England would approach it, and would that style stand up against the quality of the Australian attack. “It probably had some of the Australian players, coaches and the captain at different times scratching their heads as to how they were going to combat it,” Ponting said.
