Alice Capsey Says England’s World Cup Form Driven By Ashes Heartbreak

By IANS News October 14, 2025 • 21:08 PM View: 604

Cricket World Cup: Alice Capsey believes England’s unbeaten run at the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 is being fuelled by the pain of their Ashes whitewash earlier this year, as the team looks to reclaim pride and rebuild under new leadership.

England endured a bruising campaign Down Under in January and February, losing across all formats as Australia retained the Ashes for the sixth successive time. The series defeat prompted sweeping changes, with Charlotte Edwards taking over as head coach and Nat Sciver-Brunt replacing Heather Knight as captain.

Reflecting on the team’s transformation since then, Capsey admitted that the Ashes experience had served as a turning point for the squad.
