England across eras

The Bazball Era (2022–present)

Under Stokes and McCullum, England’s Test run rate jumped to 4.4 per over. Win rate in this period: 62%. The most aggressive era in English Test history, backed by data.

The Root Era (2017–2021)

Joe Root averaged 48.6 as captain but England’s team batting average fell to 29.8 — the lowest since the 1990s. A tale of individual brilliance masking collective inconsistency.

The Strauss-Cook Era (2009–2015)

England reached number one in the ICC Test rankings in 2011. Batting average 34.2, bowling economy 3.01. The golden era of English seam bowling with Anderson and Broad in their prime.
