How to watch the Women's Ashes 2023: stream the cricket series online

There’s only one more match of the Women’s Ashes 2023, with the final One Day International falling on Tuesday, July 18, and although the result of the tournament is already clear (England can’t win, given the points of the other games), it’ll be a fitting swan song for the season.

This final game takes place at Taunton, and going into the last fixture Australia leads with seven points to England's five, making it impossible for the latter to win.

Unlike the men's Ashes, the women's equivalent isn't a Test series; it instead gets a medley of game formats with one test, three Twenty20s and three ODIs, so the action is always changing. A win at the test gets four points whereas it's two points per win for each of the other games.

The action moves to England this time around, with the matches taking place in various cricket grounds around the country. You can find a schedule below that tells you when and where the matches will fall.

So here's how to watch the Women's Ashes 2023 in your region, in case you're stumped on how to do so. Oh, and we've also got a guide on how to watch The Ashes if you want to catch the men's version too, and luckily there's not too much overlap.
