England batters must go ‘old school’ – Vaughan

Former England captain Michael Vaughan advises the batsmen to master their attacking “Bazball” style and practice a more aplomb in the second Ashes Test.

After England suffered an astonishing two-day defeat in the first Test in Perth, where the tourists’ shot selection was heavily criticized, Australia are now 1-0 up in the series.

In Brisbane, Ben Stokes’ side will play a pink ball during a day-night test.

Australia have won 13 of their 14 day-night tests, including three against England, with a formidable record.

Vaughan claimed that England should have better game awareness at the Gabba and that there was “arrogance” about how they handled Perth.

“This England side dances down,” They “fly toward the danger,” Vaughan said.

“I’m not too sure that’s a wise decision,” the ballplayer said. Play the traditional way.

I’m not suggesting that you constantly play like Geoff Boycott or Alastair Cook. However, when the ball is slightly zipping around, use your senses.

They are excellent entertainers, but they haven’t won a fifth or fourth series in three or four years. I’ll give a tip about England. It is ineffective.

Vaughan argued that England should focus on using a more measured approach to frustrate left-arm quick Mitchell Starc in Brisbane.

Starc is widely regarded as the best bowler in the world with a pink ball in hand and has 81 wickets for his average of 17.09 in day-night games.

Mitchell Starc, who won the Ashes series for England in 2005, is the aggressor and must take wickets, said Vaughan, who added.

There is no way Starc won’t bowl a run because he is there to get wickets if you leave a few outside off the stump. It possesses that awareness and sense of game.

Vaughan said he was concerned about how England’s bowlers would handle the heat in Brisbane and that “a lot of overs” would be required.

With fast bowler Mark Wood expected to miss the match with an injury, England could use Shoaib Bashir as a spinner or switch to Will Jacks, who would also add depth to their batting.

Vaughan said he would stick with an all-out pace attack because England needed to win the series and face off.

If England bowls well with the seam bowlers, he said, they will take 20 wickets.

I wouldn’t play spinner, in my opinion. I’d be playing all my quicks because England currently doesn’t have a good spinner for these circumstances.

“I can’t imagine Shoaib Bashir or Will Jacks taking four or five wickets at the Gabba.” Josh Tongue is my favorite. He’s a wicket taker, if you look at his record. He would approach me.

Stokes, the England captain, should not be hesitant to start introducing himself into the attack sooner rather than later, according to Vaughan.

Ben Stokes bowling early appeals to me. He had to bowl earlier in Perth, but it was crying out. He needs to realize how effective a bowler he is, Vaughan said.
