Whatever it takes!!!
I really notice that a lot of these younger batsmen have a problem with tempo. They either go way too hard or they become really passive. It's actually the one thing you notice the most with the truly great batsmen; they have absolute mastery of tempo and can change it at will.
I often think Bazball is basically taking it ball by ball literally. Be aware of the field, the pitch, the conditions and the state of the ball etc. but if you feel there is a ball you can play a shot to, and a potential boundary, go for it. And if you feel you have more chances by playing a forceful shot than just defending pointlessly, then go for that too.This is why bazball works so well. It takes the guesswork out and just dictates the tempo to you so you have clarity of thought.
I dont think its brainless as its made out to be, except for the times they did let themselves get carried away by that philosophy, but at its core its basically the SehWAG thing of see ball, hit ball.
