This five-test series is played between England and Australia, with the overall winner taking home the iconic Ashes urn. If the result is a draw overall (Such as 2 test wins for both teams and 1 draw), the urn will be retained by the previous winner. It's a sporting event that cricket fans simply cannot miss, offering around 6 weeks of entertaining and often tense action.

If you want to bet on the Ashes, look no further than BetVictor. We have a comprehensive range of cricket betting odds for this monumental event, covering both the outright markets and options for each individual test. You can also find each match over on the in-play betting page as soon as the very first ball is bowled!

The Ashes Cricket stands as one of cricket's most famous rivalries between England and Australia, featuring a series of Test matches that captivates cricket fans across both nations.

This historic competition follows the traditional Test cricket format, where each match spans five days and teams battle for supremacy in what many consider the sport's top dog!

Format of Each Match in The Ashes

Each Test match in The Ashes series lasts up to five days, giving both England and Australia plenty of time to showcase their cricket skills. Teams get two chances to bat during each Test, which means four innings total across the match.

There are plenty of intricate details when it comes to each test, however, the main goal is simply to gain as many runs as you can (For the batting side) or dismiss the batting team as fast as possible (For the bowling and fielding side).

How The Ashes Winner is Determined

If a team wins one of these tests, they are awarded 1 point in this best-of-five affair. This means that if one team wins three or more matches, they are automatically declared the winner of The Ashes, however, this number of victories is not entirely necessary.

As each test can end in a draw, it's actually possible to win The Ashes with just a single test win, should the other four matches end in a draw. While this may seem unlikely, it's happened a total of 5 times in history, with the most recent coming in 1970 - 71, where England won once and drew the other four tests.

Even more interestingly, it's technically possible to retain the Ashes without winning a single test, should all five result in draws, as the team that currently holds the Ashes will keep it, if the best-of-five series ends all-square. This outcome, however, has never happened.

The most recent iteration of the Ashes occurred in 2023, with the series ending in a draw, following 2 test wins for both Australia and England, with the other ending in a tie. Due to this, Australia retained the trophy, which made it their fourth consecutive success campaign in a row.

Here's a look at the results from the last 10 versions of The Ashes, alongside where it was hosted:
