There must be accountability for an opening batter who they've built up for this Ashes, and Zach Crawley, who averaged 27 in it.

There must be some kind of accountability, because if you're not telling them that that's wrong, and you're not tearing a piece off them,

then the next time they just go out and do it again, and then you don't get change.

I heard in that interview, yeah, yeah, yeah, we can change, we can do it differently, and we'll look at it, and I'll assess it, and we'll do it differently.

But what frustrates England fans, and also ex-England players, is that you don't actually see them do it differently.

When you come under a pressure situation, we will back away and try and hit Labrache for four or six, we will run the part-time spinner and get caught deep square leg.

I'm struggling to think of...

Root's got the monkey off his back.

We'd be like, I got my school report, tried hard.

I think Kars did try hard.

Absolutely, can't question that.

But then there's not many others who've enhanced their reputation.

I just want to ask you about one, because us three here are massive fans of Ben Stokes, the captain.

How do you think Ben Stokes captained in this Ashes series?

Sorry, one more thing that came out of that interview, Ath, was about the fielding coach.

And it's very important.

17, 18, who knows what the final figure is and a variety of different levels and chances that were put down.

I put it to Brendan McCullum, why didn't you?

You should have had a bowling coach.

And he just simply said, because of franchise cricket.
