Another tumultuous Test in Brisbane saw England emphatically beaten under the Gabba floodlights to fall 2-0 behind in the 2025-26 Ashes. Only one side in history has overturned such a deficit to win, but that is now the task facing Ben Stokes' men. On the pod, Alan Gardner, Andrew Miller and Andrew McGlashan sat down to discuss how bad it has got for the tourists, who suffered another blow on Tuesday with the news Mark Wood won't play any further part. The death of Bazball, Brendon McCullum's post-match comments, the brilliance of Mitchell Starc, and selection for Adelaide - all were on the menu.
