AUS vs ENG: Stats Preview ahead of the Australia vs England 1st Test Ashes 2025-26 in Perth

By Rawat Karan Karan November 20, 2025 • 21:07 PM View: 551

AUS vs ENG 1st Test, Ashes 2025-26, Test Approaching Milestones and Records: The Ashes 2025-26 fever is on, and the first test between Australia cricket team and England cricket team is all set to get underway on November 21 (Friday) at Perth Cricket Stadium. Australia have the urn, and they have had it in the last four consecutive Ashes series. This is the first test series in Australia for Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum.

So, there will be high hopes from this promising duo, who have made the "Bazball" approach a trending style in test cricket. England have not won a single test in Australia since 2010/11, so they need something special to record a win in Australia. The hosts are hurt after injuries to Josh Hazlewood and captain Pat Cummins. They have given the debut cap to Brendan Doggett and Jake Weatherald.
