‘Ashes will be done and dusted if Australia…’: Glenn McGrath makes bold prediction before Lord’s Test

Australia and England collide in the second Ashes Test at Lord’s which starts on Wednesday.

Australia won the first match two wickets after a gripping five-day battle at Edgbaston and thus took an important 1-0 lead in the series.
Former Australia legend Glenn McGrath believes that if the Kangaroos win the second Test then Ashes will be ‘done and dusted’ and it is game over for England.
“The last time a team came from behind to win the Ashes was in 2005, a series I was right in the thick of,” he said while speaking to the BBC.
“We were 1-0 up heading into the second Test at Edgbaston, a match I sat out after the infamous incident of treading on the ball in the warm-up.
“We lost a thrilling Test two runs, but I will always maintain that the series would have been won had we got over the line that day.
“The same is true now. If Australia win at Lord’s, the Ashes are done and dusted,” McGrath said.
McGrath also applauded England’s new and aggressive approach towards the game and said, “‘Naturally, I’m a true blue Aussie, but that doesn’t mean I can’t like the way England play. I do.”
“It’s good to be confident, but don’t let that spill over into becoming too cocky,” he added.
