Australia vs England Champions Trophy 2025 Live Cricket Score: Both Australia and England suffered ODI series defeats in the lead up to the Champions Trophy 2025. Australia lost 0-2 in Sri Lanka while England were blanked 3-0 in India. Australia, the current ODI world champions, enter the ICC tournament depleted – a few of their first-choice stars are sitting out due to various reasons. They are being led by Steve Smith with regular captain Pat Cummins alongside Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood missing out due to injuries. Allrounder Mitchell Marsh is also not featuring due to an injury while Marcus Stoinis announced shock retirement days before the start of the competition.
On the other hand, England have batting woes to deal with. They appeared listless in India but will hope that the aggression that came to define an era of England’s limited-overs cricket bringing them two world titles will come good to help them collect the only ICC white-ball tournament missing from their trophy cabinet.
