Australia vs England Preview

England have played second fiddle to their Australian counterparts in recent years, culminating with them losing the 2015 Ashes series. Since then there have enjoyed a complete overhaul in their setup under new coach Mark Robinson and bounced back to win this summer’s Women’s World Cup and move top of the ICC World Rankings. As World Cup winners and the number one ranked side, England will now look to complete their resurgence with an Ashes series victory down under.

Australia vs England Predictions

England have removed any excuses ahead of the Ashes series and our betting tips suggest England could spring an upset, arriving in Australia early to avoid jet-lag and adapt to the weather and match conditions, allowing them to enter the series ready for battle and in peak condition in what has been a breakthrough year for women’s cricket. The rise of the Kia Super League and central contracting means it is a prime era in the women’s game and the team top of the rankings will want to have their hands on the Ashes title to boot. England enter the series in a great place ahead of a crucial series and have seemingly left nothing to chance. England may be underdogs on paper, but their brand of attacking, no fear cricket will win them many fans over this series.

Australia vs England Betting Tips

England enter the series in a rare position as the number one ranked side in Women’s cricket and will look to live up to the billing when they take on Australia in the first match. Such is the nature of the match, there is very little to choose between the sides and Australia only take the favourites take because of their home advantage. Both sides are short odds but with England just shy of even money through Betway, the visitors represent brilliant value at 19/20 with bookies Betway, the best betting odds available for this match. They have the momentum, the confidence and their preparation has been perfect, it is hard to look past them to win the first match of the series and take a lead into the second match.

England have plenty of strength at the top of the order and they tend to build their innings around a strong start to get ahead of the rate and then rotate the strike through the middle overs before finishing strongly. With the fielding restrictions at their strictest, England will want to take advantage and with the likes of Sarah Taylor capable of clearing the boundary with ease, England will come out the blocks strong and put the bowlers under pressure throughout. England are brilliantly priced at 10/11 with Unibet to top score in the first 15 overs with Unibet, and it would take a blinkered fan to back against the strength of the defending World Cup champions.
