Australian fast bowler Scott Boland remains unfazed by England's on-field aggression ahead of the 2025 Ashes series, emphasizing Australia's consistent and skill-focused approach over the past four years.

Boland highlighted the importance of winning crucial moments in matches, noting that Australia has match-winners in both batting and bowling, and expressed confidence in their ability to perform under pressure.

He dismissed concerns about sledging from England players, stating that the Australian team is not worried about any psychological tactics, and is prepared to play hard but fair.

This series will be the first Ashes since Australia retained the urn after their 2023 series draw, which also marked the retirement of England's Stuart Broad.

The upcoming five-Test series in Perth is expected to break attendance records, with over 424,000 tickets sold, reflecting the immense interest and rivalry between the two nations.

Cricket Australia CEO Todd Greenberg has described the Ashes as the biggest sporting event in Australia for the year, emphasizing the series' high profile and the anticipation of a fiercely competitive contest.

Recent history between the teams includes heated exchanges and controversies, notably in the 2023 Ashes, which was marked by incidents involving Stuart Broad, Alex Carey, and a contentious stumping with Jonny Bairstow.

Despite recent struggles against England's aggressive 'Bazball' style in 2023, Boland is optimistic about performing better on home pitches, which are expected to favor Australian bowlers.

Boland's impressive career includes a hat-trick against the West Indies and key performances against India, though he may not start unless injuries occur among the main bowlers.

Australia aims to play hard but fair, maintaining respect for opponents despite recent tensions in international cricket series.

Boland has expressed interest in the recent England-India series, which ended in a 2-2 draw and featured intense moments, reflecting his engagement with the current competitive landscape.

Boland made these comments approximately 100 days before the first Test, scheduled to take place in Perth in November.
