Vaughan: Dawson's Inclusion Boosts England's Balance
Liam Dawson, a left-handed bowler, has joined the England cricket team for a test match against India.
Former captain Michael Vaughan thinks Dawson is a good addition because he can control the game, score some runs, and field well.
Dawson hadn't played a Test match in a while but made an impact immediately by taking a wicket.
Vaughan believes that Dawson's all-around skills make the team stronger.
He highlighted the importance of control on the type of pitches they are playing on.
Dawson offers that balance, even if he may not take many wickets each match.
Liam Dawson, a left-arm spinner, was included in the England Test team against India.
