England captain Ben Stokes said his side missed their own chances after the 4-1 Ashes series defeat, pointing to repeated mistakes despite being in good form, including in the final Test in Sydney. In the post-match presentation, Stokes said, “Australia is a fantastic team. They have performed brilliantly with both bat and ball. But we also have to be honest with ourselves and admit that we did our own damage. We know we can play better than this, but full credit goes to Steve (Smith), Pat (Cummins) and the Australian team. They performed brilliantly in all five Tests.”

Stokes further said, “There is no time to think right now. There is a long break before our next Test series, which will give us time to look at this series and the series before that. Hopefully, when we come back in June, we will get everything right.” Let us tell you that in the Ashes series, Australia had already won the Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide Tests and won the series 3-0.
