In this rapid-fire Ashes debrief, Menners is joined by journalist and author Tim Wigmore to unpack one of the most chaotic and unprecedented first Tests in Ashes history. They explore England’s collapse, Travis Head’s extraordinary fourth-innings burst, Mitchell Starc’s growing legacy as a great left-arm quick, and the rising scrutiny on Bazball after another high-profile stumble. The pair also look ahead to a pivotal pink-ball Test, discuss selection dilemmas for both sides, and assess the mood in England after a bruising start.
