'Plans Not Always Perfect': Woakes Defends England's Tactics Against Windies Tail
Joshua Da Silva: England all-rounder Chris Woakes defended his team's approach against West Indies on the third day of the ongoing second Test at Trent Bridge and said they opened the field to trap No.11 Shamar Joseph as Joshua Da Silva was firing all his cylinders from the other end.
Former England captain Michael Vaughan criticised his side for their defensive approach in the match and felt the home team gave West Indies a 'huge chance' as they took a 41-run lead after finishing their first innings for 457. Kavem Hodge slammed 120 while Da Silva remained unbeaten on 82 runs studded with 10 fours and three sixes. He also built a 71-run crucial partnership with Joseph for the final wicket.
