As cricket's oldest rivals, England and Australia, prepare to battle in three T20Is and five ODIs, here's everything you need to know about the upcoming series, including fixtures, timings, and streaming details.
Australia will tour England for a comprehensive white-ball series, marking their first such visit since 2020. The series, which consists of three T20Is and five One Day Internationals, offers both teams a key opportunity to prepare for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The series begins with the first T20I in Southampton on September 11.
Australia, fresh from a 3-0 T20I series win over Scotland, come in as favourites. However, England will be a tough opponent on home soil. Mitchell Marsh will captain Australia in both formats, while Phil Salt will lead England in the T20Is, with Jos Buttler out due to a calf injury. Buttler may also miss the ODI series, though no official decision has been made yet.
The teams last met in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 and ICC ODI World Cup 2023, with Australia emerging victorious in both tournaments.
