Australia vs England
AUS vs ENG: The Australian cricket team is a team that fights till the last ball in the match and never gives in easily. This ability makes it different from other teams. Be it men’s cricket team or women’s cricket team. Something similar was seen in the ODI series being played in Ashes 2025. The Ashes 2025 has started between Australia and England. In this, first of all a 3-match ODI series is being played. The first match was played on 12 January in Sydney, which was in the name of the host Australian women’s cricket team. After this, both the teams faced each other in the second ODI match on 14 January in Melbourne. In this match, the Australian team, batting first, could not even play the full 50 overs and collapsed on the score of 180 runs. Ellis Perry scored the highest score of 60 runs for Australia. 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.
Kangaroo bowlers did wonders
In fact, this happened in Australian women’s cricket after 2009 when the team was all out on a score of less than 200 in the first innings of a home ODI match. England’s bowlers bowled out Australia for 180 runs in 44.3 overs. In this way, the Australian women’s cricket team was all out for the first time since 2019 in the first innings of the home ODI. However, despite scoring such a low score, Australia did not give up and did wonders in bowling and defended the score of 180 runs.
Australia captured the series
For Australia, Kim Garth and Alana King wreaked havoc with the ball and bowled out England for just 159 runs. In this way, despite scoring 180 runs, Australia won the match by 21 runs and took an unassailable 2-0 lead in the 3-match ODI series. Alana King took 4 wickets while Kim Garth took 3 wickets. Megan Scutt and Ashley Gardner had one success each. Amy Jones scored the highest score of 47 runs for England.
