Ashes Betting Markets

Here’s a breakdown of some of the most popular Ashes betting markets to help you find your ideal bet:

• Series Winner – Who will win the entire series after five Tests. 
• Match Winner – Betting on who will win a particular Test. 
• Top Batsman – Who will be the leading run scorer across the entire series: for England, Australia or both. 
• Top Bowler – As above, the top bowler betting market refers to who will be the leading wicket taker for either or both sides. 
• Man of the Match – Which player will win Man of the Match for a particular Test.
• Specials – These are more creative, unique bets that are often suggested by your fellow bettors. You can usually also suggest your own special at the best Ashes betting sites. 
• Method of First Dismissal – This is a bet on how the first batsman will get out: bowled, LBW, caught behind, etc. 
• Draw No Bet – This is when you bet on a team to win, but your stake will be refunded if the match ends as a draw.
• To Score A Century – Quite simply, bet on which player you expect to score a century, either across the whole series, or in a specific Test/innings. 
• Handicaps – Handicap betting is when the bookie levels the playing field somewhat. So, if England are the favourites, they’ll be given a disadvantage on outright handicap bets, resulting in longer odds. 
• Player Specials – Specials on individual player markets, such as a player’s specific method of dismissal or someone to get a certain amount of ducks across the series. 
• Match Specials – These are more broad specials spread out across the match and the team.

Read Our Tips 

We’ve got plenty of Ashes tips from different writers here at BettingOdds.com, and they can provide some useful guidance if you can’t decide where to place your bets. Head over to our dedicated Ashes betting tips page, or read our previews to find out some of our writers picks for the series.

Assess the Odds for Best Prices

Compare the different odds in our odds table to decide which site is offering the most competitive odds on selected bets. Our table covers series winners and the best batsman and bowler for both sides, so if you want to compare a wider variety of markets, you’ll have to head over to each individual operator’s betting site. Odds will vary significantly from bookie to bookie, so make sure you’re getting the best bang for your buck. 

Research Each Team and Players

Although we provide betting tips, you should never be going in blind when placing a bet. If you fancy raising the stakes for the Ashes this year, do some research on both sides. There will be plenty of familiar faces on both sides, but there might also be some players that you’re not so familiar with, especially for Australia. Despite being 34 years old, Scott Boland only has 8 caps and has been looking very dangerous of late, and new boy Todd Murphy could deliver some surprises. Check the squads before the start of the Test match and adjust your bets accordingly.

Consider Form

In cricket, form is everything, especially when it comes to batting. England and Australia’s preparatory Test matches against Ireland and India, respectively, can tell us a lot about particular players’ form and confidence going into the series. Crawley, Duckett, Pope and Root all looked in great touch, but they will be facing a far superior Australian attack — one that managed to dismantle the near-unbreakable Indian betting lineup.  

Look at Past Winners in England

Australia haven’t won a series in England since 2001, but we are certainly not unbeatable at home. New Zealand beat us here in 2021, and we drew 2-2 in a thrilling series against India last year. Having said that, it can’t be denied that southern hemisphere sides struggle in England, and this should be taken into account when placing your bets.
