KARACHI:

Pakistani paceman Wasim Akram claimed on Tuesday that England’s new coach Trevor Bayliss would make the Ashes a closer contest, despite the fact that Australia had started out as hot favourites.

The left-armer, who was bowling coach for the Kolkata Knight Riders in India’s domestic Twenty20 league while Bayliss was head coach, said the Australian’s cool and collected approach would serve England well.

“Bayliss keeps it simple and his coaching module is very impressive,” Wasim said.

“At this level it should always be simple and Bayliss keeps it that way and I am sure his experience with Sri Lanka and New South Wales will help him in the Ashes.

“I am sure he will give a positive mindset to England besides spicing it with the Australian touch of aggression and that will make the Ashes more competitive. I am sure it will not be a one-sided affair.”
