“Where’s the aggression”, Herschelle Gibbs Trolls Australian Bowlers In The Ongoing 2nd Ashes Test.
The Ashes 2023 has become a major topic of discussion following an exhilarating conclusion to the first Test at Edgbaston. Australia secured a narrow two-wicket victory, taking a 1-0 lead in the series and setting the stage for an exciting contest in the remaining matches. The second Test between England and Australia is currently underway at Lord’s, where the visitors have made a strong start by amassing 416 runs in their first innings.
Despite conceding more than 400 runs in the first innings, England has maintained their aggressive style of play, commonly referred to as ‘Bazball.’ The opening pair of Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett provided a solid foundation for England, scoring 80 runs in just 16 overs. Observing the Australian bowlers’ performance in the Ashes, former South African cricketer Herschelle Gibbs expressed surprise at their amiable demeanor, recalling their fierce competitiveness during his own playing days and non aggressive nature.
Gibbs tweeted โOzzie bowlers nice and friendly these days ๐ whereโs the aggression gone.. #timeshavechanged.”
