Jamie Smith explaining how to play Bazball in a proper manner.

Can England able to overhaule the massive total set by India?

Akash Deep's brace and 3 from Mohammed Siraj pushed the host behind and kept India in the front seat until the Bazball came into the game. Brook's power-hitting abilities are globally recognized, and in the previous match at Headingley, he troubled India a lot.
