"A pitch for TV and not for getting wickets," he said. - Sunil Gavaskar slams England's Brumbrella defence from Edgbaston Test

During the first Ashes Test at Edgbaston in Birmingham, India, Sunil Gavaskar criticised England‘s strange way of playing. Notably, England, under Ben Stokes’ leadership, lost the first Test by a slim margin. This gave Australia a 1-0 lead in the five-match series.

During the exciting match, the Three Lions did a lot of interesting things. For example, they declared on the first day and their captain, Stokes, took a different approach to fielding during Australia’s turn to play.

For those who don’t know, on Day 3 of the first Test, England put a unique umbrella-like set up on the pitch to get rid of Usman Khawaja. The strange way the pitch was set up got Stokes a lot of attention and earned him the nickname ‘Brumbrella’. But India’s great Gavaskar didn’t seem happy about the move. He said that a setting like that was for “television” and not to get wickets.

“The Ashes series seems to have gotten the attention of cricket fans in England. England is batting with a level of ease that has never been seen before, and more traditional and nontraditional shots are being played than before Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum took over. In his most recent piece for “Mid-Day,” Sunil Gavaskarsaid, “That’s where Bazball stops.”

“When England bowls, they don’t do anything different from what they did in the past. Yes, the way the field has been set up is different, with three catchers on each side of the pitch. Two fielders on each side of the pitch have been seen and shown on TV before. I have called it a “TV field” instead of a “field for wickets,” he said.

Normal situations would have made it easy for England to catch: Sunil Gavaskar

England missed a lot of chances during the game, which led Sunil Gavaskar to say that the team could have won easily if they had just played in their usual positions.

“The few chances England didn’t take could have been easily taken if these same fielders had been five to ten paces back in their normal positions.” “Up front and that close, the fielders didn’t have much time to react to those hard, uppish pulls, so they could barely get their hands on the catches,” he said.
