Ollie Pope on England's boycott of the Bazball match vs Sri Lanka: "Not just one-dimensional team"

In Manchester, England won the first match of the three-match series by a margin of five wickets over Sri Lanka. The Ollie Pope-led team was challenged to chase 204 runs in the game’s final innings, which presented England with a formidable assignment after they had dismissed the visitors for 326 runs in the second innings. After losing a few quick wickets and being down to 70/3 at one point, Sri Lanka gained confidence that they may win.

At that point, in an attempt to re-enter the game, England drastically altered their approach and shunned the Bazball tactic. The Three Lions played an aggressive kind of cricket under Ben Stokes, but the circumstances in Manchester altered and England had to change their approach. While Harry Brook needed some time to adjust, Joe Root, batting at number four, struck 62* runs off 128 balls, which contributed to England’s victory.

Stand-in captain Pope said after the match that England needed to change their blueprint in order to get the desired outcome. He emphasised that the participants are not static and have the ability to shift course as necessary. Because of the pitch’s characteristics and the outfield’s relative slowness, I believe that on another day we might attempt to beat that total in 20 fewer overs.

Ollie Pope was cited by The Daily Star as saying, “We’re not just a one-dimensional team that wants to go out and score quickly.”

We want to be as ruthless as we can as a squad and continue to read things a little bit better. It’s not just about trying to score as quickly as possible; it’s also about finishing the task at hand,” he continued.

Regarding Mark Wood‘s injury, Pope also provided an update. The England bowler is predicted to miss the second Test at Lord’s after being excluded from Day 4.

Before the next game, which is scheduled to start on August 29, the team management will make a decision, the captain made it clear that nothing is final. “We will observe his arrival and proceed accordingly. Pope stated, “Nothing is set in stone.”
