'Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum have changed Test cricket'- Michael Vaughan
Brendon McCullum with Ben Stokes
Since head coach Brendon McCullum took over the reins of England's Test side, their march in the format has been unstoppable.
In alliance with new captain Ben Stokes, the Three Lions are yet to lose a Test under the duo's guidance and are currently touring Pakistan in their first away series.
After an unsettling start to the build-up to the Rawalpindi Test, Day one witnessed England batters plunder runs against an inexperienced bowling attack, further highlighting the team management approach.
McCullum and Stokes' impetus on bringing aggression into the red-ball scheme of things is being hailed by former England captain Michael Vaughan as revolutionary.
Writing in his column for The Telegraph, Vaughan praised the duo.
Here's what Vaughan wrote
"We have to be honest about what England are doing. They are trying to change Test cricket and, eight games in, it is going pretty well. It’s not like they’ve done it once and then struggled for three games. They had one blip but otherwise it’s been consistently excellent,
"It is still early days of course, but I expect England to continue this way, and I think we will be talking about this period in years to come. We will look back on it and see Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum being the dual combination that changed Test match cricket: the way it is played, and the way we think about it."
England were bundled out for 657 in 101 overs. In response, Pakistan are 181 for no loss in 51 at stumps on Day 2.
