I break betting odds news as it happens, so you’re never left behind when the market moves or a top offer lands.

  • Australia are 8/15 favourites to win the Fourth Test and continue their dominant Ashes performance.
  • England priced at 9/4 as they attempt to avoid a 5-0 series whitewash.
  • Boxing Day Test begins 23:30 GMT on Christmas Day at the MCG, with live streaming on bet365.

Australia Dominate As England Fight To Salvage Pride

With the Ashes already secured, Australia head into the Fourth Test in Melbourne with a commanding 3-0 lead, and bookies are backing them to extend that margin with a win priced at 8/15 by bet365.

England, meanwhile, are 9/4 to register their first win of the series in the iconic Boxing Day Test at the MCG. 

The hosts wrapped up the Ashes in the Third Test in Adelaide just six days prior, putting Ben Stokes and his team under serious pressure to turn things around.

A whitewash would be a significant setback heading into the 2026 home summer and Stokes has made it clear that England still have plenty to play for.
