Australia headed into the second Test at Lord’s with a 1-0 lead. “The last time a team came from behind to win the Ashes was in 2005, a series I was right in the thick of,” McGrath told BBC.

“We were 1-0 up heading into the second Test at Edgbaston. We lost a thrilling Test by 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. If England lose, I can’t see a way that they get back into the series.”
