In the third match between Australia and England, the performance of the English team was disappointing. Australia captured the series by taking a 3-0 series lead. After England’s crushing defeat in Game 3, the ire of former veterans has gripped Captain Joe Root. He blamed Root’s wrong strategy for this. Former cricketer David Lloyd said there was a moment in the third match when the England team was in a good position, but then Joe Root made a lot of mistakes, so the team had to suffer in the form of defeat.
David Lloyd said that until lunch on the second day of the game, England’s bowlers were performing well and the Australian team was under pressure. But after lunch Joe Root handed the ball to Jack Leach, which took all the pressure off Australia, because Jack Leach was throwing so expensive. He believes that this was the turning point of the third Test match and hence the match got out of hand for the England team.
England captain Joe Root is being criticized all over the place after losing the series. Some question his strategy, while others blame the team’s hitters for the loss. After losing the Adelaide Test, former captain Nasser Hussain and Alastair Cook had counted many shortcomings in Joe Root’s captaincy. It is worth noting that the performance of the England team has been disappointing from the first game and the Australian team performed brilliantly. This was the reason Australia captured the historic Ashes series by winning the first three test matches.
