Test world champions New Zealand, who only two days earlier defeated Scotland, a team outside the global elite, by 68 runs again proved too strong for their hosts.

Glenn Phillips's unbeaten fifty led New Zealand to a 3-0 Twenty20 series whitewash of Ireland with a six-wicket win at the Stormont ground in Belfast on Friday.

Ever since New Zealand legend Brendon McCullum took over as the head coach of the England men's Test team last month, 'Bazball' has become the buzzword among cricket fans. Playing an aggressive brand of cricket, England notched a commanding 3-0 win over New Zealand at home and followed it up with a record chase against India in the rescheduled 5th Test. While McCullum himself has labelled it a "silly term", 'Bazball' is surely becoming a part of cricketing lingo, especially when it comes to playing aggressive knocks in red-ball cricket.
On Day 3 of the rescheduled fifth Test between India and England at Edgbaston, Jonny Bairstow looked to be struggling as Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah zipped the ball around. What ensued was a feisty exchange as Virat Kohli began to sledge him. Bairstow reacted as well as one could, and switched gears to put the pressure right back on the bowlers. He smashed a 119-ball century, hitting 14 fours and two sixes to help take England from 84/5 to 284.
