Australia women vs England women: Ashes 2025 between Australia and England has started. First of all, a 3-match ODI series is being played here. The first match was played in Sydney on 12 January, which was won by the host Australian women’s cricket team. After this, both teams faced each other in the second ODI match in Melbourne on 14 January. Australia’s cricket team is a team that fights till the last ball in the match and never kneels easily. This ability makes it different from other teams. Something similar was also seen in the ODI series being played in Ashes 2025. Batting first in this match, Australia’s team could not even play the full 50 overs and collapsed on a score of 180 runs. In this match, Perry scored 60 runs on 74 balls, hitting 5 fours and 2 sixes. Apart from Perry, Phoebe Litchfield and captain Alyssa Healy played innings of 29-29 runs. Beth Mooney (12), Annabel Sutherland (11) and Alana King (13) added some runs. The remaining 5 players of the team could not even touch the double-digit mark. Australia’s women’s cricket team has seen such a shameful day after 16 years, when the team was all out on such a low score.
For England, Sophie Ecclestone and Alice Capsey wreaked havoc with bowling and took 4 wickets for 35 runs in 10 overs and 3 wickets for 22 runs in 7 overs. Lauren Bell took 2 wickets, and Filler also took one wicket.
Australian bowlers did wonders
This happened in Australia’s women’s cricket for the first time since 2009, when the team was all out for less than 200 runs in the first innings of a domestic ODI match. England’s bowlers bowled out Australia for 180 runs in 44.3 overs. In this way, Australia’s women’s cricket team was all out for the first time since 2019 in the first innings of a domestic ODI. However, despite scoring such a low score, Australia did not give up and defended the score of 180 runs by doing wonders in bowling.
