Australia will tour England for five men’s Test matches and the women’s Ashes and in 2023 — here’s the full schedule, list of fixtures and match timings of Ashes 2023.
England will host Australia for five men’s Test matches across June and July, 2023, in a quest to regain the Ashes that they conceded when they lost 0-4 on the 2017/18 tour of Australia. Since then, England have drawn 2-2 at home and lost 0-4 again in 2021/22, when they toured Australia. However, with Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum at the helm, England will back themselves in Test cricket’s oldest contest.
This will be the first time in 139 years that England will not host an Ashes Test match in August. The Test matches will be played at Edgbaston, Lord’s, Headingley, Old Trafford, and The Oval.
England will also host Australia women for the usual multi-format Ashes series, comprising a Test match, three Twenty20 Internationals, and three ODIs. The match, at Trent Bridge, will be only the second five-day Test in the history of women’s cricket, after the North Sydney Oval Test of 1991/92 between Australia and England. Australia have been holding the Women’s Ashes since their 10-6 win in 2015: they drew 8-8 in 2017/18 (at home) and won 12-4 in each of 2019 (in England) and 2021/22 (at home).
