The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

They'll be very pleased to see you.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

Yeah, they are.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

I mean, you've got to be interested in the whole question of coaching and preparation, the sort of stuff that's been talked a lot about on this tour.

Test Match Special

But the nature of sport is that if you lose, then you'll talk about everything that you wouldn't talk about if you win.

Test Match Special

Whether it be basketball, whatever, the environment, obviously they went away after they lost the second test, I think they had a week off.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

Yes, you might have enjoyed that.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

I'm so on board with that you are but the thing is once you get to that level and you're playing at that level they should know what works for them you know

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

Not everyone will always agree with it, but the most normal thing is if you lose a game, let's train harder.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

That'll fix the problem, but actually that might fatigue you more and it actually might make you more bored and it doesn't often work.

We have that in rugby that if you lose three games on the bounce, you go, right, we're doing contact every day next week.

Well, then you just turn up to the game next time tired.

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

Yeah, and beaten up.

Test Match Special

So you've got to find the balance about it.

Test Match Special

You've got to find what works for that group.

Test Match Special

Is it a case if you lose, kind of there's a pressure on to...

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

analyze it and to learn from it and to do something about it do you think yeah but you've also got to understand you've got you've got to believe in your process of how you're doing things right and can that change can it be flexible yeah but you i think you do have to sway with that if if something keeps cropping up let's say drop catches or something then that's something it needs addressing or you might go right we need to sharpen up on that so we've got to shift it

Test Match Special
The Ashes: Bethell hundred provides belated bright spark

lads I know we're here and we're here to have fun and everything else but this is actually crept into our game and it's noticeable whatever it might be so you've got to move both ways but you've got to understand the group and what they need to be motivated to go but it can't all be fun and it can't all be work you've got to find that balance and that's got to change
