THE ASHES
It was in 1882 that the term ‘The Ashes’ originated in a British newspaper following the Australian men’s cricket team’s first Test win on English soil. England’s defeat was considered the death of English cricket, the ashes of which were sealed in an urn and gifted to the English captain. This story was to become entrenched in cricketing folklore as the beginning of cricket’s fiercest rivalry. In the first drawn Ashes series since 1972, the Australian men’s cricket team retained the Ashes in 2019. Steeped in heritage and tradition, the Ashes is where history will happen.
