Former Australia cricketer Shane Warne slammed the England cricket team for their "negative approach" on the final day of the Lord's Test against New Zealand in London on June 6. Disappointed at the negative approach from England y’day as they never even contemplated chasing down a very getable total. A huge opportunity missed on how to chase on the 5th day, plus exciting for spectators, viewers & test cricket ! @robkey612 @nassercricket @MichaelVaughan England dropped anchor on Day 5 after being set a target of 273 runs to chase down in 2 full sessions by New Zealand at the Lord's cricket ground. The hosts made absolutely no effort to go after the total and played to save the Test instead. England openers Rory Burns and Dom Sibley arrived at the crease focused only on blunting the new-ball bowling attack in a bid to save the Test match. Sibley spent over 5 hours in the middle for his unbeaten 60 off 207 balls, while Ollie Pope was unbeaten on 20.More Related News
