The multi-format series will be played Down Under and consists of three ODI matches, three T20 matches and a one-off Test encounter to determine the champions.

Australia retained the trophy in 2023 after holding on for a series draw in the UK. They enter this edition of the prestigious competition as favourites.

That said, England boast plenty of reasons to be hopeful, few greater than Nat Sciver-Brunt, who won 2023 Player of the Series, Danni Wyatt with the bat, and captain Heather Knight at the helm.
