INDvENG, 3rd Test: Ex-skippers Criticise Root’s Reverse-ramp Timing On Day 3
Sky Sports Cricket: Former England captains Alastair Cook and Nasser Hussain have criticised the timing of batter Joe Root’s reverse-ramp on day three of the third Test against India, which eventually became the starting point of the visitors’ batting collapse in first innings.
The start of day three on Saturday saw England collect a brace of boundaries before Jasprit Bumrah got India the breakthrough as Root dragged a reverse ramp straight to the second slip in the 40th over. Root’s dismissals triggered a collapse for England, who went from 207-2 to 319 all out, conceding a 126-run lead to India.
“Inside the Ben Stokes-Brendon McCullum dressing room, there will be no repercussions with the shot, and there will be no-one in the dressing room saying he shouldn't have taken the shot. They can't have it both ways; they're allowed the freedom for the players to play the shots like Ben Duckett was playing yesterday, and the way Zak Crawley plays.”
