I break betting odds news as it happens, so you’re never left behind when the market moves or a top offer lands.

  • Australia are clear 8/15 favourites for the 2nd Test after a dominant performance in Perth.
  • England’s batting woes continue, but pink-ball cricket adds unpredictability under lights.
  • Prop markets like top wicket-taker, total runs, or in-play betting may offer better value than outright bets.

Australia Favourites To Go 2-0 Up As England Head To The Gabba

Australia are 8/15 to make it back-to-back wins in the 2025 Ashes series after comfortably dismantling England in Perth. 

The hosts ran out eight-wicket winners after bowling Ben Stokes’ side out for 172 and 164. 

With England now losing 14 of their last 16 Tests in Australia, bookies are once again favouring the home side ahead of the second clash at the Gabba.

England remain 21/10 outsiders with bet365 to square the series, with the draw out at 11/1 heading into what should be an electric pink-ball contest.

Australia 1/4 to win Ashes

After that massive second innings display in the first Ashes test, Australia are now 1/4 to win the Ashes once again this year.

The Aussies are expected to be dominant in the second test and the latest odds give an implied probability of 80% that they win the whole thing.

England are out to 5/1 to win the Ashes with a small chance of doing so according to the market.
