Despite his best performance of the tour, England’s rain -affected defeat in the second T20 match in Canberra continued to dominate Australia in the series, in which he has claimed the Ashes for the sixth consecutive series since 2015. And with only two matches, the team is likely to face a whitewash, including the only Test in MCG next week.
Although Lewis said that he disagreed for reasons for rejecting the interview, and if he had known about the incident at that time, he would have encouraged him to do so, he was adamant that in fact the team was really the team They cannot be expected to work hard for them. Their fitness level is much higher than ever.
He said, “You guys have to come to see them. I promise you. I cannot defend them much about how hard they work on their physicality.” “They are incredibly dedicated to what they do. I have never seen any cricket team working like this cricket team, and I have worked in professional cricket for 31 years.”
Instead, he suggested that the outer lifestyle in Australia is more favorable for preparing a natural athlete, and for example cited the recent visit of Bandi Beach in Sydney.
“On Sunday morning, almost every Australian in the eastern suburbs was in water,” he said. “There are about one million children, and they were doing surf lifestyle, or playing touch rugby.
“For me, this is a cultural difference. I definitely feel that Australia benefits in terms of athleticism, and at this time our talent pool is also small, so it is important for us to push the game forward.”
However, Lewis also emphasized that the difference between the two teams was not as big as the existing 10-0 scorline was suggested, and each of the five matches so far to achieve important moments by Australia in each of the five matches so far. There has been a difference between teams.
“We did not find the right place around the first two matches on the tour,” he said. “Australia is actually a strong team, obviously in its own way. When we climbed into the aircraft we knew this. But in every game, there are moments when we feel that we are in the game and we have to try to try Has a good chance. ” And gained a strong lead and we did not achieve those moments in the game properly, and the opposition did it.
“Although it’s 10–0, and the winning difference in the game has been large many times, I think the difference is not as big as in terms of the result, the difference in the context of the performance.”
He said, “Like any selection, we make these decisions after the tour.” “We will spend some time in thinking and taking some rational decisions, and will think about what will be right for the team later. To be honest, I don’t think it is right to consider it right now.”
“We have to play a game tomorrow, the heather is in charge, and we have to play a Test match next week, about which we need to put our minds. And after the tour, we will sit, we will think about that for the team What is the right thing, and how we know that we are moving forward, as we will do with every other selection. ”
Regarding his future, Lewis – who have been in this position since 2022 – were more explicit. He said, “I am really comfortable in the work I am doing.” “I will continue to work to develop this cricket team as the best as possible, unless someone tells me that now is not the right time for you to do so. I am really excited about this What will be the future of the team, and I feel like I am the right person to train it. ”
Lewis said, “I think Grace may have done his work for me.” “I will pat him on the back when I see him. Players really know that he needs to win some cricket matches. They are working incredibly to do so.”
