I think you’re closer to the truth than otherwise.
I think it’s less sudden. The 3-1 result of the last Ashes series rather flattered England. They had a few lucky breaks and home advantage. This time the pendulum that was swinging Australia’s way over our summer has swung a little more Australia’s way and a pretty good but historically erratic bowler has hit a good patch and had some luck.
