The Wheel is Forever
From the Guardian

“Asked about a realistic target in the fourth innings, Duckett replied: “The more the better. This team is all about doing special things and creating history. They can have as many as they want and we’ll go and get them.”


:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
More the better might be the craziest thing anyone has ever said about chasing. That’s definitely a cult.

Yes Ben, India never have had aggressive batsman at the top of the order before Bazball. :clap:
“When you see players from the opposition playing like that, it almost feels like we should take some credit that they’re playing differently than how other people play Test cricket,” Duckett said. “We saw it a bit in the summer and it’s quite exciting to see other players and other teams are also playing that aggressive style of cricket.
Davey Warner and Travis Head obviously owe England a huge debt of gratitude for showing them how to play aggressively.

It's nice to know that Dhawan's 187(174) on debut never actually happened. As a matter of fact, I think it's best if we declare that the whole 2012/13 Border-Gavaskar trophy never happened.
For some reason it amuses me that you had to pick an aggressive Indian opener and you went immediately to Dhawan.

I mean, you're right, he's just not the glaringly obvious example I was expecting to see.

Ok, this is pretentious, egotistical flog behaviour of the highest. I didn't think Baz Ball went down this path. What nonsense

I don't think they mean this, I think they are having fun with media outlets, in other words "trolling" ..

Anderson was asked about what England think is a good score to chase , he just said there is 180 overs left whatever they set we will try to chase it down in 60 or 70 overs . 🤣
