Ashes: Vaughan wants England to play 'the old school way' at the Gabba

NEW DELHI: Former captain Michael Vaughan believes that England need to have better game awareness at the Gabba and should take a more cautious "old school" approach during the day-night Ashes Test, starting from Thursday.

Australia lead the series 1-0, and Ben Stokes’ side now face the hosts in a day-night Test in Brisbane, played with the pink ball.

The hosts have an outstanding day-night Test record, winning 13 of 14 matches, including all three against England.

England are coming off a stunning two-day defeat in the first Test in Perth, where the visitors’ shot selection drew heavy criticism.
