I’m in the same boat (which is beached because of a lack of water).
Yours looks a bit worse than mine in that it’s browner and looks to be dead. I’d skip watering the brown, focus on parts that are still green. Overseed when it cools.

My guess is that it’s mainly ryegrass and clover. We’re also peak summer and have half a dozen days over 35 in the last fortnight. The ryegrass is stressed (actively tries to die in ambient temps over ~26c) and the clovers have finished up and senesed. If you want year round green, either start pumping shit loads of water on it through summer or change the turf.
