‘I’m very confident with…’: Australian legend makes BOLD prediction about the Outcome of The Ashes
Even though there is plenty of time remaining for the Ashes, former pace legend Glenn McGrath has made a bold prediction about the outcome.

The Ashes is still more than 3 months away, but legendary pacer Glenn McGrath has come out with a bold prediction- where he has stated the series will be a 5-0 sweep for Australia. This showdown is going to begin November 21.
Glenn McGrath believes the English team is going to find it “pretty hard” to face and break through the likes of Pat Cummins and a rather unimpressive record of the past.
“It’s very rare for me to make a prediction, isn’t it? And I can’t make a different one – 5-0. I’m very confident with our team. When you’ve got Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Nathan Lyon firing in their home conditions, it’s going to be pretty tough. Plus, that track record England have had, it’d be interesting to see if they can win a Test,” McGrath declared on ‘BBC Radio’.
England- who are going to travel to Australia for the five-match series later this year- have not won The Ashes since 2015. On top of that, they have lost either 0-4 or 0-5 in all the series apart from the one in 2002-03.
