Ashes Records and Stats

Ashes Records and Stats: Australia and England played their first Test cricket match against each other in 1876–1877, but the Ashes rivalry didn’t start until the one Test match of 1882. When England lost that game to the “convicts,” one local newspaper called it the “death of England cricket”.

All Ashes Records and Stats

Head-to-head team records:

Over the past 100 years, the Ashes have been decided in heated matches with different rules. This means that some records like the highest ever score in an inning. Which is 7/903 declared and was set by England in 1938, may never be broken again because matches can now only last five days. That doesn’t take anything away from the amazing records that were set early on in the Ashes competition, especially since many of them were set on uncovered pitches. This is clear from the fact that they have some of the lowest totals of all time.

Record	Australia	England
Highest total	6d/729 (1930)	7d/903 (1938)
Lowest total	36 (1902)	45 (1887)
Biggest win	Innings & 332 runs (1946)	Innings & 579 runs (1938)
Most innings extras	61 (1989)	52 (1982)

History’s most runs in the Ashes:

The great Donald Bradman has scored more runs than anyone else in Ashes history. The former Australian captain scored 5028 runs over a 20-year career that began in 1928. Jack Hobbs has scored the most runs for England. With 3636 over the course of his long career. Which started when he was just over 50. Only one present player, the powerful Steve Smith, is on the list. With 3044 runs in only 32 Tests, Smith is on track to pass everyone but the Don.

Ashes batting records:

Most wickets ever in an Ashes:

Shane Warne, the king of spin for Australia, is by far the best wicket-taker in the history of the Ashes. From 1993 to 2007, he took 195 wickets. Glenn McGrath was his partner in crime when Australia beat England, so it makes sense that the fast bowler is second on the list with 155. Ian Botham and Dennis Lillee both have 128 wickets in the Ashes, which is the most of any English player.
