England Played A Lot Of Fun Cricket, But They Need To Play Smart Cricket, Says Mark Ramprakash
England are 2-1 behind India in the ongoing five-match Test series following the heavy 434-run defeat in the third game at Rajkot. Stokes & Co, who have now lost two consecutive Tests, must win the fourth game at Ranchi, starting on Friday, to force the last match at Dharamshala into a series decider.
“England are one down with two to play, have just endured a humiliating defeat and they know that on paper the bowling attacks are a complete mismatch. They have played a lot of fun cricket, but sometimes they need to play smart cricket –, the kind at which Stokes on his best days has shown he is so gifted.”
