Ashes 2023: England coach McCullum has ‘no regrets’ after Australia loss

The Hindu  

England coach Brendon McCullum insisted he had “no regrets” about his side’s tactics after a stunning two-wicket loss to Australia in the first Test at Edgbaston. This was just England’s third loss in 14 Tests since McCullum joined captain Ben Stokes at the helm, with the team’s policy of all-out aggression dubbed ‘Bazball’ in reference to the former New Zealand skipper. So I think it’s up to be quite a fascinating contest.” Stokes had earlier tried to seize the initiative by breaking with cricket convention in declaring on the first day before England had scored 400. “We were two wickets away from being one-nil up in the series and if luck had gone our way, we might have been pretty content with that.” McCullum was adamant there would be no change in England’s overall strategy following this dramatic loss.
