Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

And when you have to work and grind wickets on pitches like this, when catches come along, you've got to take them.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

Obviously, no one means to drop them, but we've dropped too many catches, which has just always put us behind the eight ball a little bit.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

But, yeah, hard conditions, and we just didn't have the,

The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

patience you know the patience to stick it out and get a big score get a 500 you know keep in the heat pit in the top of us now you know and Australia did.

The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

We're obviously looking from an English perspective Glenn you're looking in from an Australian perspective on this England side what do you what do you see in this England side where have they gone wrong?

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

Yeah, it is.

Australia being the most successful team at home in the history of Test cricket.

Right, let's get some reaction now from the England captain, Ben Stokes, with Jonathan Agnew.

The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

Ben is walking here, and he's actually walking relatively freely.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

I know, Ben.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

That kind of sums it up, really.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

Is he coming off yesterday at the end of that series?

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

How are you physically?

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

You're not the first England captain to lose here and you won't be the last.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

But I wonder how you feel when you do analyse it going back after this?

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

I wonder how much of a warning note that defeat to India was in the last test match of the summer against Rural, where you had wrapped up to win.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

Was that, in hindsight now, a warning bell?

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

Well, again, I say it's not just this series.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

identifying those moments where teams now target us when we are looking like we're in cruise mode and controlling the game and taking the responsibility on as a player when you're out there in the middle of you know just keep going and not giving the opposition a sift because i feel like we've done that too often yeah and is that something that that's been put on the players if you like have the players been made to feel i think of jamie smith's dismissal here perhaps as being an example of the players feeling under pressure to have to push a game and perhaps it's not the right time to do so

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Inquest begins for England as Australia make it 4-1

Again, it's about identifying those moments and looking where the game is at.
