Former all-rounder Andrew Flintoff has termed England's all-out attacking style nickname 'Bazball' as one of the "worst things' ' he has ever heard.
With the Ben Stokes-led and Brendon McCullum-coached Test team hunting down 4th innings targets at a record rate, #BazBall has been the buzz word in the cricketing folklore this summer.
England gunned down 250+ totals on four consecutive occasions- thrice against New Zealand and once against India- with their all-out attack approach, devised by Baz McCullum.
Since then, the media, fans and pundits have hyped it up as a "BazBall" phenomenon. However, Flintoff prefers calling it "exciting brand of cricket" The " than "BazBall".
"It’s one of the worst things I have ever heard. I’m not interested in that. They’re just playing an exciting brand of cricket that everybody loves watching.” he said as quoted by Sportskeeda.
