South Africa cricket team coach Mark Boucher is unimpressed with England giving their new attacking style of cricket a name, 'Bazball,' saying while his side too likes to play "aggressive cricket", that's not the only thing required on the ground.

The term 'Bazball' has come to be associated with England's attacking brand of cricket after Brendon 'Baz' McCullum took over as their Test coach, with several critics calling it reckless. England, though, have met with huge success playing entertaining cricket, making a clean sweep of the three Test series against New Zealand and then thrashing Indian in the rescheduled fifth Test recently.
