Australia women`s cricket team leads the 2025 Women`s Ashes series after defeating England by 86 runs in the ODI.

Australia`s women`s cricket team has achieved a remarkable feat by securing a 6-0 lead in the 2025 Women`s Ashes series. They clinched the third and final ODI against England women with an impressive 86-run victory in Melbourne. Opting to bat first, Australia faced early challenges, finding themselves at 59-4 after just 15 overs. However, Ash Gardner`s stunning maiden ODI century turned the tide, as she scored 102 runs off 102 balls, including eight boundaries.

Gardner received solid support from Beth Mooney, who contributed 50 runs, and Tahlia McGrath, who added 55 runs from just 45 balls. Georgia Wareham`s unbeaten 38 helped Australia post a total of 308/8 in their allotted 50 overs. England`s chase began poorly, losing early wickets, including Maia Bouchier for a duck and captain Heather Knight, who managed only 14 runs. Despite half-centuries from Tammy Beaumont and Natalie Sciver-Brunt, England fell short, being bowled out for 222 in 42.2 overs.

Alana King was the standout bowler for Australia, taking 5 wickets for 46 runs, claiming crucial wickets throughout England`s innings. This victory not only solidifies Australia`s dominance in the multi-format series but also sets the stage for the upcoming T20I matches, with the first match scheduled for January 20, 2025, at the SCG. Ash Gardner`s exceptional performance earned her the Player of the Match award, highlighting her pivotal role in this significant win.
