When is the Women's Ashes 2023? Dates, times and schedule
Your guide to when the Women's Ashes 2023 will go ahead, including a schedule of matches.
The Women's Ashes is set to light up the summer with a multi-format festival of cricket across the nation.
England take on Australia in the 25th edition of the competition, which enjoyed its inaugural run back in 1934/35.
Australia have retained the Women's Ashes throughout the last four editions, since winning on British soil in 2015. They have won three of the last four competitions, with 2017/18 ending in a draw.
The visitors will touch down in England as favourites to triumph once again, even without captain Meg Lanning, who has withdrawn from the squad for "medical reasons".
The women will kick-start the series with a traditional five-day Test match, followed by three ODIs and three T20I matches.
The Test is worth four points, the ODI and T20I matches are worth two points, and points are split between both teams in the event of a draw in any format. The team with the highest points total by the end of the series will be declared champions.
