England fast bowler James Anderson has said that he felt no sympathy for Australia after facing a 5-0 defeat in Australia six years ago and admitted that the team had set its sights on a 5-0 Ashes whitewash.

Anderson was one of the four members of the current England team that suffered the ultimate humiliation at the hands of Ricky Ponting and Co Down Under six years ago, the report said.
