Yeah, I think so.

I think the shots that the director of cricket, Rob Key, called dumb shots when he sat with us and in a press conference.

I think the new ball bowling, well, all facets of the game really.

The new ball bowling, the difference in new ball bowling was just incredibly different.

My one biding memory of this Ashes is going to be Travis Head.

Cutting the ball.

Cutting the ball and pulling the ball.

And that just tells you where England are bowling.

And then the next one will be the shots when England have got into good positions and where they need to be ruthless.

You look at the two best players.

In fact, the three, two greats.

and a young, classy player.

You look at the way those three played in Smith, Root and Bethel, and they got the tempo of batting.

It's not about blocking, tempo of batting, ruthless over my dead body, but not just going to block and be boring.

Why can't the rest of them sort of see that?

Why can't Jamie Smith see that and see that situation when Labuschagne comes on

before lunch it's those moments where you look you're not you need to look ahead you need to look ahead now and you're in that dressing room and then think if only in that moment i had the root smith bethel ruthlessness not today labashane you're not going to be get me out i'm going to be there for the new ball you might get 450 they might be chasing 220 today you might win a test match

And against an Australian side that were missing some serious cricketers.

That's my point.

Brendan, thanks for your time.
