England v West Indies 3rd Test - Edgbaston

I think at times when the batting has perhaps been too aggressive and put us on the back foot.

It would be good to remember the numerous games where they aggressive style has won us games that historically would have been certain draws in the past.

First test in Pakistan for sure and a few in 2022 would have been certain draws that this teams aggressive approach has meant wins and others as well

Guess we all want a perfect situation and criticism is due of this team at times like today, but we have won more than we lost with this approach for sure.

And definitely more then the previous regime with a more restrictive approach.

But of course we all want the balance right and the team to play the situation better
Just want to see some balance and not get out so quickly, given the batsman we have had previously it seems like we are missing something in the opening order.
 

Had a bad feeling about this morning, England have done enough to win the series but there were opportunities in the previous tests where they opened a window for the WIndies and they did that yesterday with the short ball and gifted Da Silva and Holder 100 run partnership 🤣.. exciting to watch though :lol:
