About This Dataset

Most Ashes Series Wins — England vs Australia
The Ashes cricket series between England and Australia is ranked by total series victories for each nation. Australia leads the all-time Ashes record by a significant margin, having won more series than England across the 146-year history of the contest, which began with the first Test in 1877.
Analysis

The close series win tally of 34 for Australia versus 32 for England indicates a highly competitive rivalry, but the dynamics shift when considering home performances. England's 21 home wins contrast with Australia's 19, suggesting that home advantage plays a significant role in this historic contest. Notably, Australia's dominance is underscored by their five consecutive series wins from 2013, while England's peak came with four consecutive wins in 2009. The three instances of a 5-0 whitewash by Australia further emphasize their capability to dominate in critical moments, illustrating the fluctuating power dynamics within this iconic series.

How the figures are calculated
  • Values use the measure and unit named on this page. Consult the dataset description and cited source for coverage, definitions and any unit conversions. Displayed values may be rounded for readability.
  • Missing years are left empty rather than estimated — no interpolation, no carrying a previous year forward.
  • Change is measured between the first and last year in which an entity actually reported a value, so a series that starts late is not penalised for the years before it existed.
  • The compound annual rate is (last ÷ first)^(1 ÷ years) − 1, using those same two reported years.
  • Entities are ranked highest-first on their value.
  • An entity that reported nothing in the latest year is still listed — it follows the ranked entities in the table rather than being dropped.
