After a brilliant start to the Men’s Ashes in Birmingham, the Women’s Ashes has also got underway with a one-off Test match. The series opener is being played at the Trent Bridge. England Women and Australia Women are two of the best teams in the division and it promises to be an excellent series.

Over 11,000 tickets have been sold for the Test which in itself a record. As far as the ticket sales are concerned, this series is going to create a lot of milestones. There is a lot of buzz between the crowd as a couple of Ashes series are going on at the very same time.

It is difficult to stop a team like Australia but England’s squad has some excellent names as well. England have not held the Women’s Ashes since 2013-14 when they had won away from home. A total of 51 Tests have been played between both teams where Australia have won 12 and England have won nine.
