MCG Test Ends in Two Days: England Stuns Australia, Breaks 94-Year Record

  • The 2025-26 Ashes 4th Test at Melbourne Cricket Ground concluded in just two days.
  • England defeated Australia by four wickets, marking Australia's first home Test loss to England in nearly 15 years.
  • This is only the second time in 148 years a Test at MCG ended within two days, last occurring in 1931.
  • The ongoing Ashes series has seen two Tests end in two days, including this one and the Perth Test.
  • Historically, only seven Ashes Tests have ever finished inside two days.

Why It Matters: England's swift victory at MCG marks a rare two-day Test finish and Australia's first home Ashes loss in 15 years.
