England legend Ian Bell has claimed Australia are "scared" of 'Bazball' and is confident they will bounce back from defeat at Edgbaston ready for the second Test at Lord's.
Australia may have won a thrilling Ashes opener by just two wickets, but Bell believes England's new positive and aggressive brand of cricket "unnerved Australia" and that they "only played in England's style when they knew they were beaten and they had nothing to lose".
The 41-year-old, who helped England win five Ashes series in his playing career, fells Australia "have more to work on" heading into the second Test and criticised them for being "passive" with both bat and ball on days one and two.
