The English cricket team toured Australia in October 2022 to play three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches as a preparatory series before the 2022 ICC Men's T20 World Cup and toured again in November 2022 to play three One Day International (ODI) matches. In May 2022, Cricket Australia (CA) confirmed the fixtures for the tour.
England won the first T20I in Perth by 8 runs, Alex Hales top scoring with 84 runs from 51 balls after David Warner had scored 73 from 44 for the hosts. A talking point from the match came in the 17th over of Australia's innings when Matthew Wade appeared to block England bowler Mark Wood from fielding the ball after it had looped up off the top edge of Wade's bat. England captain Jos Buttler opted not to appeal for a dismissal under Law 37 "obstructing the field", citing a long tour and preferring not to risk such an appeal on this occasion. England sealed the series with another 8-run victory in the second T20I, with Dawid Malan's 82 runs from 49 balls helping them recover from a poor start in Canberra. The final T20I was eventually abandoned due to rain after England's innings had been reduced to 12 overs and Australia lost three early wickets in their run chase.
