Preview
Australia vs England match preview
With 3 matches of England tour of Australia, 2026 still to come, game 5 can swing the series. Australia come in at 63% because their batting and bowling both suit these flat, high-scoring conditions slightly better. Australia are at home, and the model adds a few percentage points for that. England need early wickets or one big innings to win. Without that, the favourites should control the match.
On the toss: Batting or bowling first gives no real edge while the pitch stays this good.
