The infamous word ‘Bazball’ has entered the Collins dictionary as it was widely used. The word was meant as a daring and risk-taking approach by England’s Test team. The term was coined after former New Zealand captain and current England Test team head coach, Brendon McCullum.

The word was described as “a Test cricket style characterized by an assertive and aggressive batting approach.” It will be featured in the upcoming print edition of the dictionary in 2024. Meanwhile, the Brendon McCullum-inspired word has already been included in the online version of the renowned publication.
