Ashes: ‘Only designed for this’- Ponting says Bazball was forged for this series

Ricky Ponting believes England's 'Bazball' approach was specifically crafted for the current Ashes series in Australia. He suggests the team's aggressive batting style, honed over two years under Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes, is designed to counter Australian conditions. Ponting drew parallels to England's 2019 ODI World Cup preparation, emphasizing a consistent squad and strategy.
