Welcome to the beautiful North Sydney Oval for the first match of the 2025 Women’s Ashes.

My name is Jonathan Drennan and I will be taking you through an ODI that is the perfect way to get this series off to the best possible start as the sun beams down on us here in the press box.

First of all, a bit of a history lesson. You have to go all the way back to the 2013/2014 series for the last time that England won the series and they also managed to do it on Australian soil.

For the last Women’s Ashes in 2023, the teams drew after an epic series, but Australian player Phoebe Litchfield admitted recently the result left both teams feeling “hollow”.

“Both teams were probably left a bit hollow after that series, knowing we’d retained it but haven’t truly deserved it, so this time around we are definitely keen to win it outright,” Litchfield said.

“It was probably the weirdest feeling I’ve ever had because I’ve never really lost a game and then had to celebrate winning. It was quite foreign.”

Two years on, Australia have the perfect chance to win the series outright and it starts today at North Sydney Oval, there’s a tiny chance of rain, let’s collectively pray to the weather gods that we get a full day of play.
