Ashes: England's Top Order Has Obviously Been Too Defensive, Says Nasser Hussain
Former England captain Nasser Hussain highlighted that the top-order batters have been too defensive in the Ashes. He also urged England's batters to build on counter-attacking efforts of Ben Stokes, Jonny Bairstow and Zak Crawley from the Sydney Test. England showed better showings with the bat to draw the fourth Ashes Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) and will look to play for pride in the final Test at Hobart starting from Friday.
"The way to go is the way Ben Stokes and Jonny Bairstow counter-attacked in that first innings at Sydney and how Zak Crawley played in the second. Bairstow's century and Crawley's 77 can't be one-offs. They have to build on that and be more consistent. Ricky Ponting has spoken about how great bowlers love it when batters are defensive and there's no doubt England's top order have been too defensive in this Ashes," wrote Hussain in his column for Daily Mail.
