“Some of them played like Joel Garner was bowling,” he said. – Michael Vaughan says that England’s short-ball strategy against Australia was great.

This made it easier for the Ben Stokes-led team to rejoin the contest. Michael Vaughan said that the English pacers’ strategy to land hits and get back into the game was great.

On Day 4 of the second Ashes Test at the Lord’s Cricket Ground in London, Michael Vaughan was pleased by England’s short-ball strategy against Australia. On the final day of the high-stakes match, the Three Lions need 257 runs to win. England’s final score was 325 runs, but they only lost their last six wickets for 47 runs. In response, the Aussies took control of the first session of Day 4, scoring 183 runs before losing two wickets at Drinks. After the break, the English pacers chose to step it up and throw a lot of short balls, which paid off when the Australians kept losing wickets.

“It was a good plan. I don’t think the Aussies did anything right. “I think the pitch is a little two-paced, so the odd ball is sliding through and the odd ball is sticking in the surface,” Vaughan told Cricbuzz.

We have to give a little bit of room to all the batters. Michael Vaughan also admitted that the pitch is a little uneven, which helped the English bowlers. He also thought that England would keep using the same strategy in the rest of the series since it had caused trouble for the Australians on Day 4.

“When you want to play, you don’t know what’s going to come your way. So you have to give each batter a little bit of room to work with. Some of them played it like Joel Garner was bowling, though. I know he was going 87 mph, but these were going 79 mph. It’s a move that England will keep making. “They’ll use it for the rest of the series, and it will get old at times,” Michael Vaughan said.
