The Ashes are attracting as many headlines off the field, as on it. England coach Brendon McCullum is defending his team's time-out at the beach, as they prepare for the third Test against Australia. Sports reporter Bridget Tunnicliffe spoke to Lisa Owen.

Australia are 2–0 up in the Ashes and heading to Adelaide in a position of real authority while England are left searching for answers as Bazball comes under its heaviest scrutiny yet. I sat down with cricket writer and broadcaster Peter Lalor to unpack where the series is really at. We break down Joe Root's long-awaited century in Australia, why it mattered, and how he's quietly become the standard-bearer for what Bazball 2.0 might look like. We dive deep into England's identity crisis: why Bazball can't simply be abandoned, the growing tension between Brendon McCullum's messaging and Ben Stokes' on-field actions, and how falling 2–0 behind leaves almost no margin for error. On the Australian side, we explore why Mitchell Starc is producing some of the best fast bowling of his career - not through chaos, but control - and why he now belongs firmly in the conversation among the greats. We also cover the defining moments that have shaped the series so far: Steve Smith's influence as captain, Alex Carey's fearless wicketkeeping masterclass, and why Australia's ability to limit damage continues to separate the two teams. Plus, Peter shares his thoughts on England's pace attack, Adelaide's conditions, selection dilemmas on both sides, and why the third Test looms as a must-win for England in every sense. A sharp, honest assessment of a series swinging fast - and a fascinating look at how philosophy, pressure, and performance collide at the highest level. instagram.com/sportingmax.podcast/

England arrive in Adelaide facing a must-win Test, but the odds are stacked. Australia have lost just once in their last 11 Tests, and only one team in the 149-year history of Test cricket has ever come back from 2–0 down.Brendon McCullum backs continuity, rejecting “knee-jerk” selection calls. Bashir and Tongue remain in the frame, with Ed noting Bashir could be “more effective on day one in Adelaide than at any other point in the series.” The batting order looks locked in, but Ed warns it's “a hard bet that it just turns around.”Corbin's been doing the calculations, and the numbers show this red-ball Adelaide Test is far tougher for batters than the pink-ball version. Ed explains why: “The ball can get caught in the grass and bounce more slowly - it almost feels like you're facing a tennis ball,” making the toss and bowling first crucial.They also discuss a rare India–Pakistan umpiring pairing, ongoing Australian selection debates, preview the BBL where Perth's list stands out, and wrap up with the Hurricanes dominating the WBBL final as Lizelle Lee stars and Elyse Villani signs off in style.
