Michael Atherton

He himself straight into the attack, bowling beautifully.

Brings Cameron Green first over.

Little Jaffa that nipped away.

Can I just ask you about England's batting?

You said before the game, don't move away on flat pitches what has worked for you.

Do you think they did move away or do you think it was the relentless pressure that Australia applied?

Or do you think England could have gone back?

I mean, so easy when they are basketballing and getting out, we criticise them.

And when they're trying to be defensive and then they get out, we're criticising them again.

I go back to what Steve Smith, Steve Smith did that interview before a ball was bowled in the ashes.

And he said, just watch out.

The last few years, and this is a flat pitch, but the last few years it's been about skill in Australia and not about pace.

And do you think England have just read it wrong?

They've picked a side obsessed.

We've heard what Rob Key has had to say about pace.

And I'm not interested in bowlers who don't bow 85 plus mile an hour.

Do you think they've been obsessed by pace and not skill?

And Stokes, the Stokes innings, I mean, in the past, he would have once they got six down, he had maybe put his foot down, but he was struggling with cramps.

I don't think he could have done.

So he just sort of dug deep.
