The 2025–26 Ashes series, a highly anticipated cricket contest between Australia and England, is scheduled from November 21, 2025, to January 8, 2026, in Australia. This five-match Test series is part of the 2025–2027 ICC World Test Championship. Australia, having retained the Ashes after a 2-2 draw in the 2023 series, will host matches at iconic venues: Perth Stadium, The Gabba in Brisbane, Adelaide Oval, Melbourne Cricket Ground, and Sydney Cricket Ground. Notably, the series will commence at Perth Stadium, marking its debut as an Ashes venue and the first time since 1982–83 that the opening Test isn't at The Gabba. The second Test in Brisbane is slated as a day-night match. Both teams are preparing intensively, with England aiming to reclaim the Ashes on Australian soil, a feat last achieved in 2010–11. Cricket enthusiasts worldwide eagerly await this historic rivalry's next chapter.
