Former England cricket team spinner Graeme Swann praised Rohit Sharma and Co. after their thumping series win over England. On commentary, Swann said that Indian batters played their own brand of ‘Bazball’ and they did “very very well” during the five-match Test series.
“India have come out and are playing England at their own ‘Bazball’ game – and they’re doing very, very well,” Graeme Swann said while commentating during Day 2 of the Test match.
India dominated England to win Dharamshala Test by an innings and 64 runs. With this thumping win in the fifth and final Test against England, hosts have secured the series by 4-1 margin, inflicting the heaviest defeat on Ben Stokes-led England.
Earlier, several former Indian players had lambasted England’s Bazball ploy against India. Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag termed it as ‘Method to Madness’.
“Bazball , Batti Gull. There needs to be a method to madness. England simply didn’t have the game to match and looked clueless particularly after the second test match,” Sehwag said on Bazball.
“The captain failing miserably only added to their woes and they simply looked like living in an illusion. For this method to succeed, there needs to be a method to madness, which England severely lacked,” he added.
