Glenn McGrath Predicts Dominant Australian Victory in 2025 Ashes Series

Former Australian fast bowler Glenn McGrath has made a bold prediction regarding the upcoming Ashes series in 2025. McGrath believes England will face significant challenges and that Australia will secure a comprehensive victory, potentially sweeping the series 5-0. This prediction comes in the wake of England’s recent Test series against India, which concluded in a draw. McGrath emphasized the strength of the Australian team, highlighting the potential impact of bowlers like Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Nathan Lyon, and Mitchell Starc on home soil. He also noted England’s historical struggles in the Ashes, having not won the series since 2015 and last achieving victory in 2010-11. McGrath pointed out the importance of England’s bowling lineup improving to compete effectively. He also mentioned the pivotal role of Joe Root, whose performance will be crucial, particularly given his past struggles in Australia, where he has yet to score a century. McGrath also praised the batting of Brook, stressing the importance of Australia dismissing him quickly. The series is scheduled to begin in Perth on November 21, 2025, with matches also in Brisbane, Adelaide, Melbourne, and Sydney.
