‘Paper tigers’: Sunil Gavaskar unloads on England and Bazball

Sunil Gavaskar has heavily criticised Ben Stokes’ England following their 4-1 Ashes series defeat in Australia, labeling them “paper tigers.” He argued that the Bazball approach has lost its effectiveness, with teams now able to counter England’s aggressive style, especially on challenging pitches. Gavaskar also pointed to a lack of accountability in the English batting lineup.
