The 2025/26 Ashes will pit Australia against England in the ultimate Test cricket battle. Both teams are packed full of world class talent looking to make their mark on the series, but which side will come out on top?
Below, we have brought together some of the major betting markets currently available for the series.
| The Ashes Series Result | Odds |
|---|---|
| Australia Win | $1.53 |
| England Win | $3.30 |
| Draw | $9.00 |
Australia are the team to back when it comes to winning The Ashes once again. They have taken the urn in their last four series against England, with the last iteration of the contest seeing the sides share a 2-2 draw.
England will be confident they can ruffle a few feathers, but they have struggled in Australia. Indeed, their last three series in Australia have seen England fail to get a win on the board, losing 5-0, 4-0 and 4-0 in 2013/14, 2017/18 and 2021/22 respectively.
Meanwhile, the draw is the underdog in the betting, with the odds suggesting the series will not be shared this time.
| Series Score | Odds |
|---|---|
| Australia 4-1 | $6.50 |
| Australia 3-2 | $7.00 |
| Australia 3-1 | $8.00 |
| Australia 5-0 | $8.00 |
| England 3-2 | $8.00 |
| Drawn Series 2-2 | $9.50 |
| Australia 4-0 | $10.00 |
| Other Results | $11.00+ |
The odds suggest that Australia are the side to back in this series, with a 5-0 win for the home side as likely as the likeliest England win, which currently stands at a 3-2 triumph. The most likely score is currently a 4-1 Aussie win although it is incredibly tough to predict the scoreline.
It is worth noting that the last two series in England have ended in 2-2 draws, while the last two series in Australia have ended in 4-0 wins for the Aussies.
| Top Series Batsman | Odds |
|---|---|
| Steve Smith | $4.50 |
| Joe Root | $5.50 |
| Harry Brook | $6.50 |
| Travis Head | $7.50 |
| Usman Khawaja | $8.50 |
| Ben Duckett | $10.00 |
| Cam Green | $10.00 |
| Marnus Labuschagne | $11.00 |
| Ben Stokes | $15.00 |
| Rest of the field | $17.00+ |
One of the biggest questions heading into the series surrounds the exploits of Joe Root with the bat. Root is yet to score a Test century in Australia, with the second-highest scoring batter in the history of Test cricket struggling in Australia.
Steve Smith arrives as the most likely top scorer, with Root, Harry Brook, Travis Head and Usman Khawaja following on. English batters have found scoring consistent runs in Australia incredibly tough in recent tours, which will likely be why Smith sits at the top of the betting, such is his quality.
| Top Series Bowler | Odds |
|---|---|
| Mitchell Starc | $4.33 |
| Nathan Lyon | $5.50 |
| Josh Hazlewood | $6.00 |
| Jofra Archer | $6.50 |
| Scott Boland | $6.50 |
| Pat Cummins | $8.00 |
| Gus Atkinson | $8.50 |
| Josh Tongue | $10.00 |
| Rest of the field | $13.00+ |
With the ball in hand, the top wicket-taker list for the series is dominated by the quicks. Of course, Nathan Lyon does sit near the top of the betting, but the likes of Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Jofra Archer and Scott Boland make up the rest of the top five.
The conditions down under will give a lot of help to quicker bowlers, which is why England will hope they can contest with Archer, Mark Wood, Gus Atkinson and Josh Tongue all able to bowl quickly.
