England plays Australia in cricket's biggest test series this summer.
England will head into The Ashes series against arch-rival Australia full of confidence this summer after easily disposing of New Zealand in their two-test series. The series begins on July 10 and finishes August 25, with full sports betting provided by William Hill.
The 2013 Ashes Series
England have won two straight Ashes series for the first time since the 1980s, but this one is extra important because it will give the English the chance to move level with Australia in historical wins. The Aussie have won 31 Ashes series, England 30, and there have been two draws since the first series in 1882.
This year's series is notable for one other reason: the two teams will head back to Australia in the southern summer for the second leg of back-to-back Ashes series. The decision was made to play both series in one year to break the cycle of holding them directly before the Cricket World Cup - which is next held in Australia and NZ in 2015.
William Hill Odds
William Hill has all the pre-series betting odds punters will be looking for ahead of The Ashes. This ranges from various specials to betting on the outright result of the series, which currently stands at: England 1/2, Australia 3/1, drawn series (and England retain Ashes trophy as holders), 5/1.
At present Hill is offering a number of online betting options including correct series score and top Australian batsman and bowler, but it will add more in the coming weeks including top English players. Specials include the question on when Australia will next win The Ashes, with its summer home series considered 2/1 favorite.
