England’s Red Roses have lost their series 2-0, bringing an end to a record 39-match winning streak and a 41-match unbeaten run. The result underlines that England are not invincible after a period of sustained success.
The defeat also marks the first time England have suffered consecutive losses since 2016. Despite the setback, the team is not regarded as being in a state of panic, with the focus now on responding after the end of their long unbeaten sequence.
Mitchell has issued a warning relating to PWR, although no further details of that message are provided. England’s latest position is therefore defined by the series loss and the ending of two significant records, while the implications for their next stage remain to be seen.
