American Reacts: Did Steve Smith Just End Bazball? (Ashes 2nd Test)

Did Steve Smith just put an end to Bazball? In this Ashes 2nd Test reaction, I take a closer look at Australia’s big win and how England’s Bazball strategy held up under pressure.

As an American who’s still learning cricket, I break down the key moments through a newcomer’s eyes — especially Steve Smith’s huge impact.

If you enjoy reactions from an American discovering cricket, or you’re following the Ashes series closely, I hope you enjoy this breakdown.

Thanks for watching!
