Ashes 2023: If Crawley Continues To Fail, Stokes Should Open The Batting, Says Michael Vaughan
Captain Michael Vaughan: Former captain Michael Vaughan has suggested that if Zak Crawley continues to fail as a Test opener for England, then skipper Ben Stokes should open the batting in the first Ashes Test at Edgbaston against Australia.
England start their home summer with a one-off Test against Ireland at the Lord's from June 1, followed by the Ashes starting from June 16. Crawley, 25, saw an early high in Test cricket through a fantastic 267 against Pakistan at the Ageas Bowl in 2020.
