List of Australia Test cricket records against England
This is a list of Australian Test cricket records against England. It is based on the List of Australia Test cricket records, but concentrates solely on records dealing with the Australian Test cricket team, and any cricketers who have played for that team, against the English Test cricket team. Australia played its first recognised Test cricket match against England in March 1877, and the records listed here date from that time.
Listing criteria
In general the top ten are listed in each category (except when there is a tie for the last place among the ten, when all the tied record holders are noted).
