Australia concludes the Ashes series with a victory over England

  • Australia secured the third Test in the Ashes series
  • England failed to capitalize on their chances in the match
  • Coach Shaun Wane is under scrutiny ahead of the World Championship

Australia finished the Ashes series by defeating England in the last match, which took place on November 8, 2025, at Headingley. This victory marked a clean sweep in the series with a score of 3-0.

The match began with Australia quickly taking the lead thanks to Josh Addo-Carr, who scored his first try in the series. England, despite their ongoing struggle, could not take advantage of their opportunities and only responded with a try from George Williams.

At the moment of the break, the score was 12-8 in favor of Australia, but after the resumption of play, the Australians surged ahead with tries from Garry Grant and Rhys Walsh. As a result, Australia secured the victory with a score of 30-8.

This match demonstrated that, despite improvements in England's attacking style, the team allowed more penalties, which led to three superfluous tries. Now Coach Shaun Wane and his team must reevaluate their strategy ahead of the upcoming World Championship, which will take place next year.
