Australia vs England Ashes 2025 – Complete Preview & Details
The Australia vs England Ashes 2025 series promises a thrilling showdown between two historic cricketing giants. Beginning on November 21, 2025, in Perth, the five-match Test series is expected to deliver fierce competition, dramatic sessions, and unforgettable performances. England have not won an Ashes series in Australia since 2011, making this tour crucial as they attempt to break a long drought.
Australia enter the series with home-ground advantage but face early challenges due to injuries. Captain Pat Cummins is ruled out with a back injury, while pacer Josh Hazlewood misses the start due to a hamstring issue. Selectors are considering Scott Boland and Brendan Doggett as backup seamers. At the top, Jake Weatherald and Marnus Labuschagne may stabilize Australia’s opening partnership.
England come armed with one of the fastest pace batteries in world cricket. Jofra Archer, Mark Wood, Gus Atkinson, Brydon Carse, Josh Tongue, and Matthew Potts offer genuine pace, accuracy, and aggression. Ben Stokes’ leadership and match-winning ability will be central to England’s hopes of reclaiming the Ashes.
