‘We’ll be more aggressive and more entertaining’: James Anderson’s warning to Australia ahead of Lord’ Test

James Anderson has backed “Bazball” and believes England will continue to play their aggressive brand of cricket in the ongoing Ashes series despite losing the opening Test.
England lost the opening Test two wickets and took 1-0 lead in the series. The second Test will start from Wednesday at Lord’s.
“I think we’ll go more positive, more aggressive, more entertaining,” Anderson was speaking at the London Stadium where he threw out the ceremonial first pitch in the baseball game between the Chicago Cubs and St Louis Cardinals.
“We want to try and make sure people go home happy as they did each day at Edgbaston.

“Just because we’re 1-0 down I don’t think we’ll try anything different. I think we showed enough last week to show we can win the next four if we keep playing like that and iron a few things out. We’ll go exactly the same.”
Anderson feels cricket can learn a lot from baseball, especially when it comes to more aggressive hitting.
“I think you see the way cricket has developed, the way guys try to hit the ball, I think they take a lot from the guys here,” he said.

“I don’t know how much knowledge there is about cricket in America, I don’t think the baseball players are trying to block anything, but for me I’ve always watched the fielding and thought it was something we could do better.
“The speed they get to the ball, the speed they release the ball and the speed of the throw. I know it’s a different ball but I think it’s something we could learn from,” he said.
