1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:04,279 Speaker 1: Hello and welcome to another episode of Fox Crickets Podcast 2 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: the following. My name is Courtney Olshrom, a senior journalists 3 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:11,239 Speaker 1: based in Melbourne. Really delighted to have Matthew Hoggart, a 4 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: sixty seven Test fitterm for England took two hundred and 5 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 1: forty eight wickets and was a memory that's starr in 6 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: two thousand and five team that won the Ashes join 7 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: us again. We had had a ball the last simme around. 8 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 1: But the last time around, Matt there was a lot 9 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 1: of optimism about what was two unfold. 10 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 2: That we're doomed captain and redoomed. 11 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, as you say first time around, lots of optimism 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 3: and lots of lots of yes, we've got a brilliant 13 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 3: chance in this ashy series. And then two games later, 14 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 3: I can't say two tests. I think two games might 15 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,599 Speaker 3: be the better way put in it. We're very much 16 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 3: behind the eight ball. 17 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: Six days in two down. It has to become the 18 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: first team since Don Bradman led Australia to get up 19 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: from two love down or two nil down in nineteen 20 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: thirty six thirty seven. It's a long way back, but 21 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: can it be done? 22 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 3: It is a very long way back. But yes, records 23 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 3: are there to be broken. Records are hard and that's 24 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 3: why the test of time. So yes, it can be done, 25 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 3: but it's going to take an extraordinary effort and a 26 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 3: I would say complete rethink of how we go about 27 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 3: playing our test Crooking. 28 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: We might start with just a bit of breaking news 29 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: from today and this I think will give in your 30 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: expertise in through your career. Mark Wood is coming home. 31 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: The knee hasn't come up after the Perth Test a 32 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: couple of weeksgo. Obviously you had that extended still on 33 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: the sidelines, Josh hazel Wood has been ruled out for 34 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: the rest of the series. He didn't play it or 35 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: didn't make it to the satting line and achilles problem 36 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: s grounded him. How hard is that? I've heard a 37 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: bit bowling on Australian We could and the ground's being hard, 38 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: but how hard is the ball here? In your thirties? 39 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,559 Speaker 1: Obviously weve got to cople Vozzi bowlers who are fearing 40 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: pretty well installing, But in your thirties it's a pretty 41 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: tough asking and it's clearly a difficult one for Mark Wood. 42 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, being fit as a bowler is a hard ask. 43 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 3: Anyway because it's such an an unusual action. We're not 44 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 3: built for bowling, and we put so much stresses and 45 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,799 Speaker 3: strange to our bodies that it takes its top. It's 46 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 3: not just on Australian soil. You go to anywhere, the 47 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 3: pictures are normally hard because they've been undercover, they've been rolled, 48 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 3: so it's not such an Australian problem. It's really hard 49 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 3: in England when the outfield's soft, and then you get 50 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 3: onto the hards had hard wickets, so proposes its own problems. 51 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 2: But going back to being fit, there's a difference between 52 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: being fit to play and being match fit. 53 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 3: And it's proved over and old, over and over again 54 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: that you have to have miles in your legs to 55 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 3: be able to perform in a Test match. And yes, 56 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 3: it's all right saying we've had five days of intense practice, 57 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 3: but bowlers have been bowling there forty minutes spells in 58 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 3: at going off for physio, going off for ice baths. 59 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,119 Speaker 3: They haven't been standing in the field for the next 60 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 3: six hours. They haven't been chasing the ball, they haven't 61 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 3: had to do the hard yards. Just being stood up 62 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 3: all days. It is hard enough and walking around at 63 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 3: a cricket pitch. So when we come to say we 64 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 3: didn't execute our plans as a bowler, and we has 65 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 3: a bowling unit. 66 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 2: We haven't executed. 67 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 3: Is that because we haven't got the skill, we aren't 68 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: fit enough, or is it just we're coming up with 69 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 3: the wrong plans. So there's a whole host of questions. 70 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 3: You saw the intensity that we bowled on the first 71 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: day at Perth and we rolled Australia, and then we 72 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 3: haven't seen that intensity since except for that very short 73 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 3: session when you were chasing verious short amount of arms 74 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 3: in the last Test match. And I want to see 75 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 3: that intensity throughout the Test match. You want to see 76 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 3: that from ball one to the end. You want to 77 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 3: see the bawlers coming off drained, being carried off that 78 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 3: pitch because they've put so much time and effort into 79 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 3: the game and we're just not seeing that. 80 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: I think Andrew flint Off, one of your teammates. You 81 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: think he said he used to drag himself off at 82 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: the end of the play and he'd slapping his chair, 83 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: but you knew he'd done the job, he'd given everything 84 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: he could. Talking to britt Lee earlier today, you're an 85 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: old sparring partner of yours, and he said he feels perversely, 86 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: he says, England might well be best performed, you know, 87 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,479 Speaker 1: to produce in terms of the bowlers from now on, 88 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: because they've now got two matches under their legs. The 89 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: fact that what you were just touching on, they've actually 90 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: played a couple of matches and finally they might actually 91 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: be able to have the ground into the back up 92 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: time and again. And look, there's been a lot of 93 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: talk about joffer. You had that nice little spat at 94 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: the end. Love seeing that. Brittley thought it was great 95 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: to have that little being a bit of back and 96 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: forth and some chirp or some shaddar. It was good fun. 97 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: But how do you feel the fact I've actually got 98 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: do you agree with Brettday they've got two under their 99 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: belt now they can might be able to get going massively. 100 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean I was a trundler. 101 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 3: I bowl one eighty mile an hour to watch that 102 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 3: one thirty clicks swim. 103 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: But I managed to get a job done. 104 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 3: And it's been able to to back yourself. 105 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 2: Up over and over again. 106 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 3: And it's it's not net bowling because you're bawling at 107 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 3: your friends, you're bowling at your mates, you're bowling in 108 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 3: a in a net environment that they don't have consequences. 109 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 3: You put yourself in front of forty thousand people, you're alive, 110 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 3: the ball actually disappears as actually consequences. You're playing against 111 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 3: somebody that actually wants to beat you. And it's not 112 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: just a in a net situation. You've got time, a 113 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 3: fine leg third man in between spells, you've got time 114 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 3: in between overs. 115 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 2: You have to put the ads in. You're standing out there. 116 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 3: You might be out there for an hour and a 117 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 3: half and not bowl and come up and have to 118 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 3: put in your your performance. So there's a whole host 119 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 3: of different things that happen in a game that you 120 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 3: cannot replicate in practice. And there's been tried and tested 121 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 3: over and over and over again. The playing is the 122 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 3: best form of practicing and getting the yards. And yes, 123 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 3: we might have had five five intents we've over prepared 124 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 3: over I can't my ass, we've over part of my French, 125 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,679 Speaker 3: but not a chance in hell have we over prepared 126 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 3: for this test matches. And as you say, Brittley might 127 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 3: have a point that now that we've come up and 128 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 3: said rather than this is why can we not hold 129 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 3: line in length for intense periods of time? Why do 130 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 3: we always go back to the short ball? You go 131 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 3: to the short bawl. There's only one way. Unless we're 132 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 3: bowling for runouts, we'll put two ways in. If we're 133 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 3: bowling for runouts, you're only one way getting out. 134 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: Is that cool? 135 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 3: How can you take away your main modes of dismissal 136 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 3: by saying them, We're just going to bowl short at you. 137 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 3: Is that the captain? Is that the coaches at the balls? 138 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 3: Is that the lack of direction? Is it the lack 139 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 3: of ability to say right, then, let's see. 140 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 2: What if Australia done. 141 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 3: Australia hit line and length and hit the deck card 142 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 3: and actually run in and try to get the ball 143 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 3: to move. 144 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 2: I can remember when I. 145 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 3: Was playing listening to Glenn mcgart and Jason Gillespie and 146 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 3: there were number one and two in the world, or 147 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 3: very high up in the rankings, and they said, what 148 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 3: do you what's the secret? And they just said, we 149 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 3: ran up and hit back of a length hard, and 150 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 3: we ran up and hit the top of hostile and 151 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 3: the key, the key with a little bit of a bouncer. 152 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: Every now and again to keep the batsman honest. But 153 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 3: we assume it's not going to move. So the movement 154 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 3: off the scene or in the. 155 00:07:59,280 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: Air was a ball. 156 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 2: And all they did. 157 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 3: And if you will go back through history, all the 158 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 3: great fast bowlers and all this seem they hit line 159 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 3: and length for a long period of time. Mitchell Stark, 160 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 3: what's he done. He's pitched the ball up, he's swung it, 161 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 3: he's gone across our back. Yes, our batters have given 162 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 3: him a lot of help, and you just dangle it 163 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 3: outside of stump and within the first three or four 164 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 3: balls we're having a wild swish it. We'll get onto 165 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 3: the batters later. But the done is the whole Line've 166 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 3: done the basics. And I said last time, cricket is 167 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 3: a very simple game made complicated by the people that played. 168 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 3: If you take out bold LBW out of the equation 169 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 3: and we're just bowling for caught in the outfield, then 170 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 3: surely that is not the most statistical statistical way of 171 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 3: getting wickets. 172 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 2: It's not the most Go back to. 173 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 3: Hitting lining and length, hitting the top of ustunt, bring bowl, 174 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 3: bring lb W, you bring cord behind back into the 175 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 3: game and start putting pressure back onto the running up 176 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 3: and bowling short back of a length is not cut 177 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 3: in the mustard. 178 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 1: You touched on the over prepared comments from brind mcallum. 179 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: Now I know you do some motivational speaking. Also got 180 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: the hot roasting beast. He's been over prepared. Then would 181 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: you would you have roasted in the sunshine and news 182 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: in the last couple of days on the golf course? 183 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 1: How would you feed yourself if you're out there as 184 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: someone sort of in the Midlands around England at the moment, 185 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: how would you have feared out in the sun after 186 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: four days of Test cricket. 187 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 3: So I'll answer that by putting you into the scenario 188 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 3: when we went over there two thousand and six seven Adelaide. Yes, 189 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 3: we lost in Adelaide and a Test match that we 190 00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: shouldn't have lost, and I was absolutely gutted at the 191 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 3: end of the game. I was I was trying to 192 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 3: sit in the locker because I didn't want to be. 193 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 2: I just wanted to see the quietly bad. That night, 194 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 2: most of the team went out to watch. 195 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 3: Who's the Singer Bobby Robbie Williams went out and Bobby 196 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 3: Williams and a concert. I what we've just lost a 197 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 3: test match that we shouldn't have lost. How on earth 198 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 3: can you go out and enjoy yourself and go out 199 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 3: to see a concert And to me it hurts so 200 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: much that we lost that test match. I couldn't go 201 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 3: out and enjoy myself to say, do you know what 202 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 3: we have under performed in two test matches. We've played 203 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 3: two days of the first game and we had lots 204 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 3: of time in between. We've played four of the second game. 205 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 3: But we're now going to go on holiday NUSA. 206 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 2: The it doesn't look right to the outside world. It 207 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 2: doesn't look right the fact that. 208 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 3: A load of people said, you know you've underprepared, you've 209 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 3: not been practicing, or you haven't played the games that 210 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 3: you need to. Yes, okay, if if your belief system 211 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 3: and you've prepared that way for the last four years 212 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 3: going into it, you stand up for. 213 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 2: Yourself and believes them, which what they have done. 214 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 3: We've got no qualms whatsoever with the fact that they 215 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 3: have stuck to. 216 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 2: Their guns and believed in their method. 217 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 3: But if your method isn't working and your results aren't 218 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 3: coming out, and then you bugger off to NUSA on 219 00:11:55,679 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 3: a jolly, then you're opening yourself to criticism and the 220 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 3: optics are not looking fantastic for the England at the moment. 221 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 2: And yes you can say they. 222 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 3: Don't care that they're going to stuck to the plans, 223 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 3: but if their beliefs and their plans are not the 224 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 3: right way around of winning ashes series or winning cricket, then. 225 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: Heads have to roll. 226 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: You're talking about the philosophy base ball. The cheddar afterwards 227 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: was is it dead? 228 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 3: Is this? 229 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: Is this the test that's killed it? I mean being 230 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: Stokes did look hurt after that match. He sort of 231 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 1: seen gad and the language he used. There's no room 232 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: for weak men in my dressing rooms. I need I 233 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: need to sort that out. What did you make of 234 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: it all? 235 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 2: Is it? 236 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 1: I mean? Is it dead? What do we see philosophy? 237 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 3: Well, you saw him in the first two Test matches 238 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 3: just saying basically shut to the press, we know what 239 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 3: we're doing. 240 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: Now after this Test match, do you know what you're doing? 241 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: And yes, it hurts. 242 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 3: The bass boy went out and scored what was it, 243 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 3: fifty one hundred and fifty balls? Was so he went 244 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 3: out and gutted it out. But you've got are you 245 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 3: contradicting yourself? Are you you've been saying for the last 246 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 3: four years the way to win Test matches is go 247 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 3: out and play positive, attacking cricket. You've been told from 248 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 3: ball one the do you know what? That's not how 249 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 3: to win came to Test cricket. But you've backed it. 250 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 3: You've backed it, you've backed it, you've backed it. Are 251 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 3: you now two deep games deep into an ash you 252 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 3: series said you're what, Maybe it's not the right philosophy 253 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 3: and you have to soak up pressure. You have to 254 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 3: earn the right to go out and put pressure onto 255 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 3: the Australians. 256 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 2: You have to win them important times. 257 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 3: And winning the important times might be saying, you know what, 258 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 3: You've bowled fifteen olivers and you haven't got a wicket. 259 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 3: And now the ball's older, the bawlers are tired, they're 260 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 3: getting into the second and third spells, the thirds and 261 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 3: four spells. The wicket's not doing as much because of 262 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 3: the old ball, because of the fatigue of the ballers. 263 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 3: I can now then go out and dominate and I 264 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 3: can score and they can catch up with that. 265 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: You've got five days to play with. 266 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 3: Look, we didn't play with three of the games days 267 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 3: in the first Test match. We've had a full day 268 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 3: of the last Test match. So it's not the fact 269 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 3: that we're running out of time. You can back deep. 270 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 3: You can say right then, let's build partnerships. And what 271 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 3: partnerships do is they demoralize the field inside, they lose 272 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 3: the intensity of the ball. You then go on, how 273 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 3: we're going to get a wicket? What we're gonna do. 274 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 3: Are we gonna have to change our plans as bowlers, 275 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 3: And that's when you start winning as a batter. That's 276 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 3: when the runs start coming freely. Australia have been putting 277 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 3: on partnerships and scoring freely because we haven't stuck to 278 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 3: our plans properly. Australia haven't been made to change their 279 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 3: plans because they've gone on and say, right, we're going 280 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 3: to pitch the ball up outside our stump and we 281 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 3: know you're gonna have a goal. Look at Olipope. It 282 00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 3: one overcovers, the hit, one over the slips and then't 283 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 3: caught on bold. You can see it coming. As a bowler, 284 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 3: you're thinking, you know, all I've got to do is 285 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 3: put it there and I'm going to get a chance. 286 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 3: Whereas if you put it there to Steve Smith and 287 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 3: he's leaving it or Marcus alber Sheen, and he's leaving 288 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 3: it leaving it right. Then I've got to do something 289 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 3: different because I'm wasting my energy bowl in that bowl 290 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 3: and it's. 291 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 2: Looking pretty going to the keeper. 292 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 3: So what do i have to I'm going to have 293 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 3: to bowl straight and Steve Smith's thank you very much 294 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 3: and clich Off, there has to be a rethink. 295 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 2: Of how we go around building an innings. 296 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 3: We've got one player that of maybe two with Ben 297 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 3: Joe route plays situations. The rest of our batters are 298 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 3: just going out and trying to I say, run before 299 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 3: they can walk. They have to earn the right to 300 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 3: score runs in Australia. 301 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 2: I have to put in the hard yars. 302 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 3: They have to put in the time, and at the 303 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 3: moment we don't seem like we're capable of doing that. 304 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: There's one positive is that Joe scored that century year 305 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: old nemesis that he didn't dan in his career. He 306 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: would walk around the m c G naked. I think 307 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: everyone is breathing the side of relief he stored. No 308 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: one wanted to see that it was a magnificent Indians 309 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: from Joe because it was when you would have been 310 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: watching it it was it was superbian needs wasn't it 311 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: was not enough, not enough follow through and just I 312 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: guess a sign. It's a sign of what you can 313 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: be done if if you have the application. 314 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and what he got dropped, dropped till the doors lord, 315 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 3: chance to the to the. 316 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 2: Smith. 317 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 3: And if you need a bit of look, you can 318 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 3: ride a bit look. But once you've got that, you've 319 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 3: got to ride it. You've got to say, right there, 320 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 3: I'm going to make the opposition pay. We dropped five catches. 321 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 3: We dropped five catches in an innings? What's that doing? 322 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 3: We have players playing in a Pink Bowl game for 323 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 3: the very first time, And yes, you can say, right then, 324 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 3: we did all the practice under likes.

Yea and the five intense training sessions that 341 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 3: that the training you've got to have match awareness. We 342 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 3: haven't got match awareness because we haven't played. That stems 343 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,959 Speaker 3: back to India in a home Test match series. We 344 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 3: had the feistiness, which I love.

And 351 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 3: yes we we have one games of cricket in the past, 352 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 3: but we're not winning the any of the battles at 353 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 3: the month. Australia are playing basic, basic cricket, not having 354 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 3: to do anything other than play play simple cricket. And 355 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 3: we are not playing the simple cricket. We are playing 356 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 3: a fast forward cricket that does not work in Australia. 357 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: We have metthewa joining us on the follow on podcast. 358 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 1: The disappointment or frustration if he's evident? What about the 359 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 1: reaction at home? What do you what? What? What I 360 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: mean that the I sat next to Mike Atherton in 361 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: the first Test. It was a couple of seats down 362 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: from me while we were riding away. When Joe Rouge 363 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: was out, I think you were four down and the 364 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 1: response was oh ship. Then things changed around and and 365 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: then when when when he'd written the next day that 366 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: England were on top of the test and he and 367 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: he was getting frustrated, going, oh god, people are going 368 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 1: to be waking up in the UK after the after 369 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: the horrors of day two in Perth and read me 370 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: saying that we're that England are on top and dominating 371 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: the Test, and they'll think I'm a fool once again. 372 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: But what's the reactor like around the streets? What you know? 373 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: People you're bumming into when you're doing your work? Yeah, telling, 374 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: you're selling you talk to people, you're chatting to me? 375 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 2: What's going on? Otherwise? Said? The optics don't look good. 376 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 3: The words coming out of the England come are not 377 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 3: doing themselves any favors whatsoever. We were as I said 378 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 3: on the last podcast, that build has been comments. 379 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 2: Do you know what we all said that you're not 380 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 2: preparing properly. No we are, they're not. 381 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 3: The fact that they lost in two days and instead 382 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 3: of practicing in a two ball game, and yes, the 383 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 3: week it has been completely different. It's going to be flat, slow, 384 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 3: it's not going to give you any beneficial but you can. 385 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 2: It's time in the middle. 386 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 3: Time to score some runs, time to get a rhythm, 387 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 3: time to get you time time to do you know, 388 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 3: this is how I score runs. This is how you 389 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 3: bowl line and length on a wicket. It's going to 390 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 3: be twenty two yards long. No matter where you play 391 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 3: the game, it's still going to be twenty two yards long. 392 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 3: The fact that they've lost another game and they're going 393 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 3: into a noose for a holiday, the fact that they 394 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 3: said that their own overtraining. If in anything, the optics 395 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 3: from the England camp and the language from the England 396 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 3: camp is not good. 397 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 2: Everybody just think, well, they're tossing it off. 398 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 3: They're out there for a good time and if it 399 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 3: don't come out, it's like you're playing under eleven cricket. 400 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 2: Don't matter. 401 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 3: Let's go, let's go again. Let's try hard the next game. 402 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 3: Let's try hard the next But you're trying hard is 403 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 3: not I'm not saying that they're not trying, but they're 404 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 3: not playing smart cricket. And that is the the fact 405 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 3: that they're not owning it and saying, you know what, 406 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 3: we've played ship shots to get ourselves out. 407 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 2: We're not taking time out in the middle. 408 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 3: We maybe we should have had a better warm up, 409 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 3: but you are going to be judged on your results. 410 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 3: And I wish I could sit here and said, you 411 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 3: know what, we were wrong because the fact that you've 412 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 3: been playing brilliant cricket. Your your ballers have been fresh, 413 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 3: they have put the bats under pressure. We've scored lots 414 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 3: of runs very quickly, and we're winning games and we're 415 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 3: winning sessions with It's a very The good will is 416 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 3: a role. After the first Test match, it was, you know, 417 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 3: we were in a position to win that Test match. 418 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 2: We were one hundred and from. 419 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 3: One down and then we we handed it back to Australia. 420 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 3: We came into the second Test match, he said, you 421 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 3: know what, we're with a great chance of winning this 422 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 3: Test match because we had the belief and the the 423 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 3: ability to win the first Test match. We didn't look 424 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 3: in the game in the second and in the second 425 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 3: Test match and it is a long long way back 426 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 3: from from Australia. Now Cummins is fit again. 427 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 1: I was going to say the good news is looking 428 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: towards Adelaide installation. Respect if you've got pet Commons Street 429 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: turning Nathan Lyon, who is more than five hundred test week, 430 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: it's left it out, but he beounsuspecting for the Adelaide tests. 431 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: I guess as we sort of get towards just wrapping 432 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 1: up what happens with England. Does Josh Tung come in? 433 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: This Pot's coming? We saw the sucists with which you 434 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: talked about the line in the length, the one you 435 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: know low one thirties and took a ball and bans 436 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: back from the first day and he's Alex Carry after 437 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: the Stamps. Has clearly had an impact on where they 438 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: how they're playing Scott Bawland and he's been effective. You've 439 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: seen that. Is it Pots? Does he coming? Is it? 440 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: You know who who does come in? And what do 441 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: they do? Do they change it around? 442 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 3: Well, that's a good question because you've been picking for 443 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 3: the last two years and saying right, you're number one 444 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 3: spinner and then you don't pick We go in with 445 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 3: an old pace attack which hasn't worked. Unfortunately, Woody is out. 446 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 3: We bring Fisher in, Tongue takes wickets. He's more of 447 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 3: a picture up Tyler ball. But you then look at Adelaide, 448 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 3: which is historically one of the flattered, flatter wickets in Australia. 449 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,719 Speaker 3: That turns a little bit right, then who's the spinner? 450 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 3: Are we Are we going from Jack and putting Busher 451 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 3: back in because we might need a frontline spinner. Are 452 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 3: we going to stick with Chat? That's if you were winning. 453 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 3: It's a breeze, isn't it? The selection isn't who's batting 454 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 3: at three? Are we going to stick with the pope? 455 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 3: And said, you know, let's rain it in a little bit. 456 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 3: And I wish I had the answers. But the squad 457 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 3: out there has to be the people that play. And 458 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 3: you've picked them that squad for a reason because of 459 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 3: the best fourteen players that you've got in the country, 460 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,439 Speaker 3: and you've picked the best six players to up to 461 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 3: back one to six, So they're not in confidence, confidence 462 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 3: and mindset and You're going to have to go around 463 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 3: and look people in the eye and say right, they 464 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 3: know you do you believe you can can score runs. 465 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:51,360 Speaker 3: And there's going to be some hopefully some tough conversations 466 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 3: being had in that in that changing groups, a fight 467 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 3: coming out of the England camp and saying right that 468 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 3: the intensity that was was shown in that short period 469 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,959 Speaker 3: at the end from the bowlers run up, hit that 470 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 3: length hard, put the pressure back on, put the pressure 471 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 3: on the batsman for the full However many overs it 472 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 3: takes you, not just the first ten overs. However many 473 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 3: overs it takes you put the batsman under pressure. And 474 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 3: when you're batting it doesn't matter if I mean, what 475 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 3: was that We've been beating for seventy overs, seventy overs 476 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 3: and innings.
