Описание: Australia have lifted the Ashes urn after a dominant 4–1 series win. Mark Waugh joins Alastair Cook, David “Bumble” Lloyd, Phil Tufnell and Michael Vaughan to reflect on a campaign that raised big questions for England - brought to you by Betfair.

The panel break down how Australia got the job done, the key moments that defined the series, and why England ultimately fell short once again down under. From tactical missteps to missed opportunities, there’s an honest discussion about whether this Ashes will be remembered as a disaster for England or a necessary reality check.

There is also a focus on the positives England can cling to, with Jacob Bethell’s breakthrough performances offering genuine hope for the future. Mark gives his view on what Bethell brings, whether he can become a key figure moving forward and how England should build around emerging talent.

Attention then turns to the Harry Brook controversy, after it emerged the England T20 captain was involved in an altercation with a nightclub bouncer the night before an Ashes warm-up game, the growing pressure on England’s leadership, and whether this series marks the end of BazBall as we know it. The team debate Brendon McCullum’s future, what changes, if any, need to happen behind the scenes, and Alastair Cook opens up on reports suggesting he could join the coaching set-up.

Insightful, honest and full of strong opinions, this episode wraps up the Ashes and asks the big questions England can’t avoid as they look ahead.
