"Can Win 5-0 If...": Ex-Australia Star's Bold Prediction For Ashes 2023

Former Australia wicketkeeper-batter Brad Haddin feels that England's wish of playing on flat and fast wickets for the five-match Ashes series could backfire. With the first Test set to begin on Friday, June 16, England captain Ben Stokes declared he wanted "fast, flat wickets" for the Ashes to support England's aggressive mentality. Under the leadership of head coach Brendon McCullum and Stokes, England have been a revelation in Test cricket, winning 11 of their 14 Tests. However, Haddin feels that Australia could win 5-0 if the pitches are prepared as per Stokes' liking.

"This Is Bazball!": Harry Brook's Bowling Leaves Experts Stunned During Ashes

England skipper Ben Stokes surprised everyone by declaring the innings towards the end of Day 1 in the first Ashes Test and he was once again the topic of intense debate as he handed the ball to Harry Brook on Day 2. Brook is not a regular bowler but Stokes went for that option as he wanted to test Steve Smith with a slow-ish medium pace bowling. Brook bowled just one over and conceded one run but his introduction into the attack prompted hilarious remark from the commentators.  "What is going on here?" Ponting said while speaking on Sky Sports Cricket. Former English skipper Michael Atherton was quick to come up with a brilliant response. "This is Bazball!" Atherton replied.

"New Era Of Cricket": Mahesh Babu's Interesting Post On England's Declaration In Ashes Opener

Famous Indian actor Mahesh Babu was mighty impressed with the way the England cricket team kicked off the Ashes 2023 against Australia. Joe Root ended his Ashes century-drought as his side made 393 for 8 before skipper Ben Stokes' bold declaration on the opening day of the first Test at Edgbaston on Friday. England were in danger of squandering the advantage of winning the toss on a good pitch as they fell to 176-5 after losing two wickets in quick succession. But former England captain Root was 118 not out -- the 32-year-old's first Ashes hundred in eight years and 17 Tests -- when Stokes called a halt to give his side 20 minutes in the field against Australia before stumps.

The series defeat marked the end of Joe Root's reign as captain of the Test team. However, since the arrival of Brendon McCullum as head coach, and Ben Stokes stepping in to fill the captaincy boots, England have been the team to beat in Test cricket.
