Agreed. But the Bazball approach must compound the problem. You can't be treating spin bowling with the respect it deserves, especially in the subcontinent, whilst simultaneously trying to score at 6 runs an over. The number of recent 'bowled out in under 40 overs' instances says a lot.
Remember this series against Pakistan in 2012?
Lost 3-0, one of England's, best ever batting line ups made to look hopeless against Saeed Ajmal and Abdur Rehman.

Or this one in 2015? Lost 2-0, Yasir Shah top wicket taker with 15 wickets in the two matches Pakistan won.

There are always valid criticisms of the way individual batters get out, but this really isn't a bazball problem.
