"Don't Think Rohit Has Been Superior As Captain": Graeme Swann's Debate-Stirring Statement

Former England spinner Graeme Swann doesn't believe Rohit Sharma's captaincy was better than Ben Stokes' in the five-match Test series. Rather, it was a lethal set of bowlers that "did the trick" for the India skipper. While Stokes' leadership style has attracted all the attention prior to and during the series, Rohit's team emerged 4-1 winners in the end. "I don't think he has been superior as a captain because his bowlers have done the trick for him. I think he's got more weapons at his armoury," Swann told PTI Videos in an exclusive chat after India inflicted an innings and 64-run defeat on England in the fifth and final Test here on Saturday.

"Ben Stokes Is A Freak": England Coach's Massive Take Over Rohit Sharma's Dismissal

It was as if the stars aligned for Ben Stokes to bowl that magic ball to his opposite number Rohit Sharma on day two of the fifth Test, feels England assistant coach Jeetan Patel. Right after lunch, England captain bowled a peach of a delivery, his first in competitive cricket in past nine months, to remove Rohit, who had already scored his second hundred of the series. Stokes, who had been bowling only in the nets thus far, finally decided to roll his arm over in a match situation after nothing went England's way in the morning session. He had stopped bowling owing to a knee injury and had undergone surgery last year.

"You'd Say We've Gone Backwards": Ben Stokes' Passionate Defence Of England Team In Press Conference

In Ben Stokes, England have a captain who will stand by the philosophy he has, the mindset his teammates possess when they step out on the field, and the strategy the coach decides no matter the conditions in the middle. Though England have already lost the 5-match Test series against India, with the hosts taking an unassailable 3-1 lead with the win in the 4th Test at Ranchi, Stokes doesn't feel his team has gone backward in their progress. For the England skipper, the scoreline doesn't suggest the nature of the competition his side has given to India.

"Looks Like An Absolute Belter": Ben Stokes On Dharamsala Pitch Ahead Of 5th Test

England captain Ben Stokes called the Dharamsala pitch an absolute belter and that is the main reason why he did not pick an extra pacer for the fifth and final Test against India starting on Thursday. Dharamsala is colder than usual for this time of the year keeping the pacers interested but considering no grass has been left on the surface, the England batters are licking their lips. Bringing in Mark Wood for Ollie Robinson was the only change England made to their playing eleven.

Ben Stokes Irked By 'Ruthlessness' Question, Delivers Stinging Reply Post Loss

England captain Ben Stokes on Monday dismissed suggestions that his team lacked ruthlessness in their approach against India as they suffered their first Test series defeat in 'Bazball' era on Monday. India beat England by five wickets in the fourth and penultimate Test to take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series. The home team's victory marked a stunning downfall for England's ultra-aggressive 'Bazball' approach, which has been their much-hyped winning mantra since 2022 and is now facing all-round criticism for being too rigid and lacking in depth. Asked if England lacked ruthlessness against India, Stokes replied: "Ruthlessness? What is it? How does it show itself?

"Common Sense Ball": Michael Vaughan Takes Veiled Dig At Bazball After Joe Root Century In 4th Test

Amid the ongoing 4th Test against India, former England captain Michael Vaughan took an indirect dig at the visitor's Bazball approach. England were rocked by debutant India pacer Akash Deep, who struck thrice in the first session to leave the Ben Stokes-led side reeling at 112/5 at Lunch on Day 1. However, Joe Root and Ben Foakes put on a crucial stand of 113 runs to help England cross the 300-run mark on Day 1. Root, who ended up with a century, came out to bat with a different strategy, alongside Foakes, after Lunch, taking his time out in the middle to lead England's recovery.

Ben Stokes Joins Virat Kohli In Pushing For DRS Rule Change. England Great Counters

England captain Ben Stokes once again voiced his frustration at the 'umpire's call' rule in the Decision Review System that continues to haunt his team on the tour of India. Stokes, reflecting on England opener Zak Crawley's dismissal in the second innings of the Rajkot Test, suggested how the 'umpire's call' cost the visitors a wicket despite the fact that the ball 'was clearly missing the stumps'. While former England captain Nasser Hussain agrees with Stokes' disagreement on the Crawley dismissal, he is not in sync with the idea of the removal of 'umpire's call'.
