A high-stakes Pool B clash awaits as England take on Australia in the Hong Kong Sixes 2025, at the Mission Road Ground, Mong Kok, on November 7, 2025 (2:00 PM IST). Both teams were extremely disappointing last year - while England lost all their games, Australia won one and lost one in the league stage before losing the Plate Semi-final to Pakistan.

FACTS

• In T10 Cricket, Chris Green has maintained an economy under 8.1, picking 14 wickets in his last 18 matches
• Ben McDermott strikes at 168.4 in T20 Powerplays and has a boundary percentage of 44% in the first 10 balls faced
• Joe Denly’s Sixes record boasts a strike rate of 182, with an average of 26 per match

England vs Australia Chance of Winning

England enter this tournament looking for a reset after a disappointing 2024 edition, where they lost both group matches and then fell in the Bowl Final to Oman. However, with Joe Denly at the helm and a squad built around multi-role cricketers, England look more balanced this time - particularly with the inclusion of Dan Mousley and George Hill, who add depth to both batting and bowling phases.

Australia, meanwhile, displayed spurts of dominance in 2024, winning one of their two group games before losing their Plate Semi-Final to Pakistan. With Alex Ross leading a side that feature power-hitters like Ben McDermott and the tactical bowling influence of Chris Green, Australia remain one of the most tactically structured Sixes squads.

• ENG’s chance of winning is 45%
• AUS’s chance of winning is 55%

England vs Australia Best Batters

Joe Denly to be England’s best batter

A proven match-winner and natural stroke-maker, Joe Denly’s adaptability makes him England’s biggest weapon in the upcoming event. His Sixes record boasts a strike rate of 182, with an average of 26 per match, with the highest score capped at 31 in an uninterrupted. Expect him to lead from the front.

Ben McDermott to be Australia’s best batter

Ben McDermott strikes at 168.4 in T20 Powerplays and has a boundary percentage of 44% in the first 10 balls faced. His range hitting over mid-wicket and extra cover is tailor-made for Mong Kok’s compact boundary geometry.

England vs Australia Best Bowlers

James Coles to be England’s best bowler

James Coles’ clever use of angles and cutters make him effective on Mong Kok’s low bounce surface. His knack for picking wickets in the middle overs makes him England’s best bet to apply pressure in the Sixes format. Expect him to do well and pick at least two wickets.

Chris Green to be Australia’s best bowler

Chris Green’s carrom-ball + arm-ball mix translates exceptionally well to Sixes cricket. In franchise T10 cricket, he has maintained an economy under 8.1, picking 14 wickets in his last 18 matches. He forces mistimed lofted shots which is gold in this format.

Favorites to win

Australia

Bet on Australia to win this encounter. They’ve one of the most sorted sides this year, with the likes of Alex Ross, William Bosisto, Chris Green, Ben McDermott, and Andrew Tye forming the core of the side. Chris Green provide the all-round simplicity whereas other batters will make sure to set up a strong base for a big score. England, on the other hand, seem crippled by their own uncertainties.
