'Bazball is a silly term and I have no idea what that means', Brendon McCullum plays down "BazBall"

In what could be a revelation, Brendon McCullum the current English coach has stated that he has decided to put the term "Bazball" on the backburner while adding that there was no need for the extra fanfare being given to the term.

He just nonchalantly brushed the term away saying that it was a very 'silly term'. The former Kiwi batter also made a remark on the backdrop of Steve Smith's comments who said that England's fearless approach will be put to test against a strong Aussie bowling attack.

For the context, Smith said that the," 'Bazball' approach is not a one size fits all thing.  It will be a quite a challenge to face the potent Australian attack and that if England managed to use this fearless approach against Australia successfully then that in itself will be an achievement of sorts."

Though " Bazball" is being coined after Brendon McCullum, he honestly admitted that he clearly does not have any idea about Bazball himself. Brendon McCullum has heaped praise on the fearless approach adopted by England and is very happy about how the England players have been able to generate results with the newly found approach 

"I don't really like that silly term that people are throwing out there, because there's actually quite a bit of thought that goes into how the guys manufacture their performances and when they put pressure on bowlers and which bowlers they put pressure on. There's also times where they've absorbed pressure beautifully as well," the former Kiwi batsman told Adam Gilchrist in the SEN WA breakfast show.

Ever since the appointment of Brendon McCullum as England’s red-ball coach and Ben Stokes as captain, the Three Lions have gone on to win all of the four Tests that they have played in the last couple of months.

To conclude , the approach has definitely reaped dividends so far and it remains to be seen for how long England stays with this approach. Well, only time will tell. It remains to be seen whether this same approach will give the same success to the Englang when they go on a long tour to Pakistan later in the year.
