  • Gardner and Sutherland shared a 180-run partnership that turned the match (ICC tournament highlights).

What is the head-to-head record between England Women and Australia Women?

Overall record

  • Across all formats, AIScore’s head-to-head dataset shows Australia Women with 24 wins and England Women with 6 wins (AIScore cricket statistics).
  • Australia’s average runs in those matches is 220.4 compared to England’s 184.9 (AIScore cricket statistics).
  • The maximum team total recorded by Australia is 650; England’s is 318 (AIScore cricket statistics).

Recent form

  • Australia Women have won 4 of the last 5 matches between the sides (ICC tournament highlights).

The pattern: Australia’s head-to-head dominance is not just about wins — it’s about run margins and batting depth that consistently outpace England’s bowling attack.

Why this matters

For England, the statistic is a strategic warning: without a plan to break Australia’s batting partnerships (like the Gardner–Sutherland stand), the gap will only widen in ICC tournaments.

When is the next England Women vs Australia Women match?

Upcoming fixtures

  • The next scheduled meeting is an ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Warm-up on June 8, 2026, at 2:00 PM UTC (Sofascore live score).
  • Exact venue for that warm-up has not been confirmed (Sofascore live score).

Tournament schedule

  • Check the official ICC website tournament authority for confirmed fixtures.

The catch: With only a warm-up game scheduled before the T20 World Cup, both teams will treat it as a key rehearsal, but England will urgently need a different game plan.

What are the key stats from the England Women vs Australia Women match on Oct 22, 2025?

Batting highlights
