The England test team captain Ben stokes got aggressive over the insulting comment of South African skipper Dean Elgar regarding the bazzball which is the new and attacking playing style of England test team. From 17th August the first test match of 3 game test-series is going to be played at the venue of lords cricket ground, but before the game a lot of chit chats and proclamations have been made from both the sides.
Initially the South African Skipper Dean Elgar started the tug of war when he gave a controversial comment on the bazzball by saying, “I don’t see that there’s longevity in brave cricket”. Later Ben Stokes, the English skipper, slammed him by indicating it as a way too much confidence from the South African team.

He said, “Opposition seem to be doing a lot of the talking at the moment about it,” Stokes said. “We just concentrate on what we do. We’ve got a style of play, they’ve got a style of play. At the end of the day, it’s bat against ball and whoever plays best over a Test match is most likely to win”.

Further he said, I’m happy for Dean and the South African team to keep saying they’re not interested but also keep talking about it. For me, it’s just about reiterating the points that we were making at the start of the summer – our mindset, attitude and everything like that – about how we go out and play our cricket”, Ben Stokes concluded.
