‘Guess the batters are just sticking to what they do’

“I guess the batters are just sticking to what they do, their preparation, they’ll have a hit in the morning and talk around plans of how what happened the first innings, how they can negate that and move forward and improve on that,” Hazlewood said to the media.

Stunned by the remark, former English captain Michael Vaughan has said that he is appalled by Hazlewood's comment. 

‘I’m staggered by that’

“I must admit, I’m staggered by that. Josh Hazlewood is a great bowler, terrific team member. Publicly, I’ve never heard an Australian come out and kind of divide the camp into batters and bowlers,” Vaughan said on Fox Cricket.
