Not sure front foot, no fear cricket should involve protecting your captain with a night watchman

If the tactic works 3 times and fails once and the pattern repeats, we will be the best side on earth.

This Summer when Bairstow and Root have been aggressive it's looked calculated - it's not going to be risk free because that's the nature of the style. Stokes looks like it's a 1 day game where we need 20 off the last over

 

[Dinowolf]

Bairstow reaches 50

 

[Dinowolf]

48 runs off the last 5 overs

 

[Tredman]

Stokes batting like an absolute idiot. And out finally.

 

[Dinowolf]

Bumrah drops Stokes, then next ball shot repeated and this time hangs on to it

 

[Dinowolf]

Stokes gone 25

149-6

Stokes playing brainless cricket and hiding behind Bazball as an excuse is going to get tiresome. There’s a way to be aggressive without being stupid as Bairstow is showing.
