Series Overview
The 2021-22 Women's Ashes was played in Australia during the same summer as the men's Ashes whitewash. Australia dominated comprehensively, winning 12-4 across all three formats. Ellyse Perry was the standout performer, displaying the all-round excellence that makes her one of the greatest women's cricketers of all time. England were competitive in patches but Australia's superior depth in batting, bowling, and fielding proved decisive across the multi-format series. The 2021-22 series was Australia's fourth consecutive Women's Ashes win, extending their hold on the urn that they have retained since 2015.
