close

England opener Zak Crawley has had a middling Ashes 2025-26 campaign. In six innings, he has scored 214 runs at an average of 35.66, with two half-centuries. In contrast, Australian opener Travis Head is the leading run-getter, with 379 runs in six innings at an average of 63.16, with two hundreds to his name.

Crawley began Ashes 2025-26 on a disastrous note as he was dismissed without scoring in both innings of the Perth Test. The right-handed batter followed it up with scores of 76 & 44 in the second Test in Brisbane, while he scored 9 & 85 in the third Test in Adelaide, which England lost to concede the Ashes.

In this feature, we compare his stats with those of KL Rahul after the latter had also played 62 Tests. Like Crawley, Rahul has also displayed some brilliance in his Test career, but has failed to deliver consistent performances.
