Yes, as I have answered repeatedly to this question, Including during the Brisbane Test last week!

I dont know but if Glen Mcgrath heel gets any worse then there might be a slight chance
like when last year when Glen was injured and didnt play, the ashes slipped into Englands hand

It's a big ask, no test side have won a series in Australia since 1988. But if any team can then it's England. England have a great Test side, but we need to work on our One day Team, they Suck!./

IN THE LAST 20 YEARS OR SO,ENGLAND HAVE WON THE ASHES ONLY ONCE[PREVIOUS SERIES]
IT'S BEEN EVEN LONGER THAT THEY HAVE BEATEN THE AUSSIES IN THE LAND OF OZ
NOT TOO MANY TEAMS HAVE BEATEN AUSTRALIA AT HOME RECENTLY,PRIMARILY BECAUSE THEY STILL ARE, BY SOME DISTANCE THE BEST SIDE IN THE WORLD
ENGLAND ARE STRUGGLING WITH INJURIES TO KEY PLAYERS
SO,LOGICALLY SPEAKING,AUSTRALIA HAVE THE BETTER TEAM, MAN TO MAN,AND THEY SHOULD WIN EASILY
BUT,THE REAL REASON WHY THE AUSSIES ARE FAVOURITES IS THIS-
WHEN THEY LOST THE URN TO ENGLAND,IT HURT THEIR PRIDE
EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM HAS BEEN WAITING TO GET BACK AT ENGLAND FROM THAT POINT
BESIDES,THEY TAKE A LOT OF PRIDE IN PLAYING FOR THEIR COUNTRY & THEY ARE PLAYING AT HOME
BUT FOR ALL THOSE WHO PREDICT A WHITEWASH,
REMEMBER ENGLAND ARE STILL,WITH INJURY,WITHOUT THEIR ORIGINAL CAPTAIN[AND VICE-CAPTAIN],WITH ALL THE ABUSE,WITH HOSTILE CROWDS,PERHAPS,THE ONLY TEAM TO BEAT AUSTRALIA
AND FOR THEM TO DO SO IS SIMPLE
THEY HAVE TO BELIEVE IN THEMSELVES
THEY HAVE TO REALISE
THE AUSSIES ARE HUMANS TOO
AND IF YOU CAN BEAT THEM ONCE......
CRICKET IS A FUNNY GAME
ALL IT TAKES IS ONE MATCH....OR MAYBE ONE BALL
MAY THE BEST TEAM WIN

While England may be able to win one or two tests, they may not be able to win the series and retain the ashes

It doesn't look too likely. England needs to do some work to get where they were last time, that's for sure.

No England are wimps and the Aussies will stomp them down where they belong.

Unfortunately they don't look up to it this time around. They need a dramatic improvement on the first test performance. Not impossible but unlikely......
