Glenn McGrath has gone, but the tradition of predicting series whitewashes has been passed on to Stuart Clark.

"It's going to be a great summer with Sri Lanka and India coming out," Clark said in the Herald Sun. "And hopefully the fans can come out and support us and we can bring home 4-0 and 2-0 series wins." Quizzed further on the prospect of a series whitewash against both India and Sri Lanka, Clark said: "I have just predicted 4-0 and 2-0."
