Sir Alistair Cook

I'm going on a radio show.

Multimedia, Alistair.

We're all multimedia.

I'm still a long way away from that on the farm.

I find it a little bit.

I just found that little 45 minutes a bit strange because you're right.

All the stuff we've just spoken about, it seems the most obvious thing ever.

like all of us, it's just blatantly obvious.

Like you go to Australia and you don't have a bowling coach you've ever worked with before with a young bowling attack.

Like where is that anywhere near high performance?

We've got a pink ball game and a few players have never played a pink ball game and they had an opportunity to go and play a pink ball game after the first test match and not one player apparently wanted to go and do it.

So there's so many things which went wrong on that tour.

uh and then you sit here for 45 minutes and i really enjoy keysy like but it's all management spills if they're just filling in forms and say this is what we have to do because we've lost there ultimately i'm looking at that side and they need to they needed to catch better they needed to bowl better areas for longer period of time i need to get it's like the three basic pillars of cricket they didn't do and i'm like so i thought i'm like

It's so obvious what they need.

They obviously, the 18 months, right, they need to go.

We've got 18 months to go and win back the Ashes.

That's what all the public, what this has shown is how much the public care about English Test cricket and especially Ashes.

You know, you have an 18-month goal.

How do we get all these players better than they are now so that we can have a chance of the England side can retain the ashes?

Don't worry about management.
