Glenn McGrath believes England will lose the Ashes 5-0.

McGrath, who retired in 2007, predicted a whitewash four years ago but was part of the side beaten 2-1.

But Australia’s win over South Africa has left him confident.

“If they can do the same and improve in one or two areas they will do well and probably win 5-0,” said McGrath, who can now expect a hot reception througout the series.
