England have confirmed a 50-over warm-up fixture at the Waca in Australia ahead of this winter’s white-ball tour, in a notable contrast to the team’s experience during last year’s Ashes defeat.
The match will take place at the Waca before England begin their scheduled white-ball tour of Australia. The supplied details do not include the date of the fixture or the identity of the opposition.
The announcement places England back at the Perth venue in a different context from the previous Ashes campaign. The warm-up will form part of the team’s preparations for its white-ball commitments rather than a Test series.
The fixture is the latest confirmed detail about England’s preparations for the winter tour. Further information about the match, including its timing and opponents, has not been provided.
