Ollie Pope Admits Axe from Ashes Squad Was 'Right Decision'

• England batter Ollie Pope acknowledged his dropping from the Ashes squad after three poor Test matches was justified at the time.
• Pope scored only 125 runs in six innings during the disastrous Ashes tour, leading to his omission from the final two Tests.
• He attributed his poor form to being 'too eager to put bowlers under pressure' rather than technical flaws.
• Pope aims to score 'massive runs' in the upcoming County Championship to reclaim his spot and become the 'best batter in the country'.
• Despite losing vice-captaincy and facing uncertainty about his batting position, Pope believes his 'best batting years are to come'.
