Ashes over the ages

“The Ashes” is a Test Cricket series played between England and Australia and also one of the international cricket’s most renowned rivalries which dates back to 1882.

It is currently played bi-annually in England and Australia comprising of five Test matches under the regular rules of International Cricket Council. If a series is drawn then the country already holding the Ashes retains them.


The series is named after a sardonic obituary published in an English newspaper ‘The Sporting Times’, in 1882 after the match at The Oval in which England lost to Australia for the first time at English ground. The obituary stated that English cricket had died and the body will be cremated and the ashes taken to Australia.


Australia currently holds ‘The Ashes’ after pounding England 5 - 0 to regain them in 2006-07.


England, Strauss and his men outplayed Australian's in most of the occasion by displaying their splendid performance during the 2009 Ashes season to retain the 'ASHES'
