The Ashes Today

The Ashes is one of the most severely contest war in cricket.

The stoppage of England to get back to the Ashes for 16 years from 1989, joined with the global dominance of the Australian team, had boring the lustre of the series in recent years throughout most of the cricketing world, although it has remained the most popular cricketing contest for Australians. However, the close results in the 2005 Ashes series, and the overall high quality and competitiveness of the cricket greatly boosted the popularity of the sport in Britain and significantly improved the profile of the Ashes around the world. It remains to be seen whether the irregular results of the 2006-07 Ashes series will have a negative crash on this newly obtain fame outside of Australia.
