Ollie Pope Seeks Joe Root Advice On How To Balance Batting And Captaincy

Ollie Pope has asked Joe Root for guidance on how best to balance the demands of batting and captaincy after an awkward first outing as stand-in England skipper against Sri Lanka. Pope, in the first of three matches deputising for the injured Ben Stokes, led England to a five-wicket win over Sri Lanka at Old Trafford last week as they went 1-0 up with two Tests to play. Nevertheless, No 3 batsman Pope was himself twice out for six in Manchester -- the second time to an ill-judged reverse sweep.

Joe Root Leads England To Victory Over Sri Lanka In First Test

Joe Root's gritty unbeaten 62 guided England to a five-wicket win in the first Test against Sri Lanka at Old Trafford on Saturday. Set 205 to win, England were faltering at 56-2 when star batsman Root came in shortly before tea on the fourth day. But together with Yorkshire team-mate Harry Brook (32) he shared a grinding partnership of 49 in 20 overs -- a far cry from England's 'Bazball' approach of recent years -- although a still slow outfield made boundaries hard to come by.

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.

Ollie Pope Says England Can Make 600 Test Runs In A Day's Play

Ollie Pope reckons England breach the 600-run mark inside a day's play in Test cricket while ruling out any let up to their ultra aggressive 'Bazball' approach with the bat. England hold the record for the most runs scored in a day when they piled up 588 for 6 on the second day of the Manchester Test against India in 1936, and Pope believes the current side under Ben Stokes can eclipse that. "Sometimes we might score 280 to 300 in a day but that's OK and probably because we're reading situations. There might also be a day where we go and get 500 to 600 at some point in the future as well. And that's a cool thing to have," Pope was quoting as saying by 'BBC Sport'.

"Least Insecure About What People Feel About Me": Ravichandran Ashwin After Win Over England

Ravichandran Ashwin worked on different actions and speeds throughout the Test series against England and the master off-spinner said experimenting while shutting out external noises was integral for his success in the varied Indian conditions. Ashwin, who played his 100th Test in Dharamsala, finished the five-match series as the top wicket-taker, bagging 26 wickets. "Throughout the series I have gone to different actions, speeds and releases. India is different, each ground has a challenge. I am least bit insecure about what people feel about me," Ashwin said at the post-match presentation.

"People Who Talked About Pitch Didn't Get A Run": Ravi Shastri's Explosive Take

Legendary Indian cricket team star Ravi Shastri took a massive dig at England batter Ollie Pope regarding the massive controversy around the Ranchi pitch. Ahead of the fourth Test match between India and England, Pope spoke a lot about the surface and expressed his concerns regarding the cracks. However, in a Test match that witnessed several solid knocks from both teams, Pope failed to score a single run and was dismissed for a duck in both innings. During commentary on Day 4, Shastri slammed the batter for his comments and said that cricketers need to play the ball and not the pitch.
