It's an anyone who's been a good coach or is a thoughtful human analysis. It doesn't take away from the fact we have list issues but it doesn't blame everything on that in some silly.excuse that ignores the data on the ability this core has shown and isn't showing now.

Fundamentals have and will always be the key to success. In every endeavour. You may never be as good but you can make up for it. Steve Waugh was a fundamentals freak. Wasn't faster, stronger, or more talented than anyone state cricketers. Was certainly more consistent and 'better' though.

Every good coach drives home the importance of fundamentals and the speed at which they decay when ignored and not prioritised. Pretending otherwise is bloody daft.
