Ebony Rainford-Brent's Ashes 2025/26 predictions

Result: England 3-2 Australia

"Australia are good, they have done it and come back in other series so we're going to have a bit of a battle but because of that head start, England are going to do it.

"I'm going for it – 3-2. England get ahead, pull back and then take it down."

Top run scorers: Joe Root (England) & Steve Smith (Australia)

"He knows what he's doing. He's stepping into captaincy and he's comfortable with leadership. He won't be fazed by any of this. He's going to be a run machine and is just a difficult character to get out. So, I think he will be churning them out.

"I'm going to bank my hopes on him with maybe a few cameos from Ben Stokes and Harry Brook later but think if there is a reliable person. He's going to get his mindset and technique right for this and come good."

Most wickets: Jofra Archer (England) & Scott Boland (Australia)

"Mitchell Starc will be dangerous – but Scott Boland, if he goes on a run in that first Test. Even though it bounces, it does have a bit of movement that he's been known to exploit. I think if he gets on a run, and he's done it to England in Australia before, he could end up being that reliable pro that makes you think: Why has he not played more for Australia?

"If he's in good order, which I think he will be, then I think he could be dangerous."

Player of the series: Joe Root (England)

"It will be the story of his career that he's finally done it in Australia. He's held it together for England; he's been that workhorse and just consistently produced. Steve Smith might be close behind but that's my prediction."
