Women's Ashes 2023 preview
The first ever five-day Women's Ashes Test (June 22-26) is the launchpad for a multi-format summer series that sees England attempt to confine Australia's dominance to just shy of a decade. The hosts last won the Ashes in 2014, but the withdrawal of skipper Meg Lanning has put the Southern Stars on the backfoot.
Not only have Australia flourished under Lanning's watch, but her absence will have wider implications for the team as a whole, because Alyssa Healy has been nominated as her stand-in. Healy is already Australia's wicket-keeper and designated opening batsman, so chances are she'll have to step away from the second of those responsibilities in order to turn her attentions to captaining the side.
It can't be seen as anything but a promising development from the perspective of her England counterpart Heather Knight, who's led her team through several outstanding World Cup campaigns but has never managed to win the Ashes as captain. This is looking like her best opportunity to break that duck.
There are four points up for grabs for winning the Test, while each of the subsequent six white-ball games will be worth two points, and you can read on as we explain how to watch a Women's Ashes live stream online from wherever you are, including for free.
