Not Brendon McCullum Or Ben Stokes, England Great Points Out Star At The 'Heart' Of Bazball

Former England captain Nasser Hussain said Ben Duckett's astonishing knock of 86 on day one of the third Test against Sri Lanka was yet another example of why the left-handed opener is at the heart of the side's risk-taking attitude while batting. At The Oval, Duckett set the tone for England making 221/3 by hitting nine fours and two sixes in a 79-ball 86 to leave Sri Lanka dazed. “Let's be honest, Sri Lanka were poor. It was almost like they'd never bowled to a left-hand, right-hand combination before, but Duckett never let them settle at all.”

Nasser Hussain Thinks Ollie Pope's Appointment As Test Captain For Sri Lanka Series Augurs Well For England

Former captain Nasser Hussain thinks Ollie Pope's appointment as England Test skipper for the upcoming series against Sri Lanka augurs well for the side ahead of the all-important Ashes happening next year in Australia. Pope was made England captain for the Sri Lanka series starting on August 21 as Ben Stokes was ruled out due to a torn hamstring. "I think it's good for Pope to be captain for three Tests, just in case, Ben Stokes does get injured in the future. They need other options. Just like when they go to Australia, and they don't want a bowling attack that's inexperienced. You don't want to get there with someone (leading) who hasn't done it before," said Hussain in the latest episode of Sky Sports Cricket Podcast.

"Test Cricket Summed Up": England Great Gives Verdict On Reality Of Test Cricket

Former captain Nasser Hussain said England's quickfire victory over the West Indies in the first Test at the Lord's summed up the problems the longest format of the game finds itself at. England beat West Indies by an innings and 114 runs in the first hour of day three, to now take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. While England had some red-ball preparation in the form of County Championship games, West Indies played just one three-day red-ball game against First Class Counties XI in preparation.
