Later in 1882, following the famous Australian victory at The Oval, Bligh led an England team to Australia, as he said, to " recover those ashes ".
Publicity surrounding the series was intense, and it was at some time during this series that the Ashes urn was crafted.
Australia won the First Test by nine wickets, but in the next two England were victorious.
At the end of the Third Test, England were generally considered to have " won back the Ashes " 2 – 1.
A fourth match was played, against a " United Australian XI ", which was arguably stronger than the Australian sides that had competed in the previous three matches ; this game, however, is not generally considered part of the 1882 – 83 series.
It is counted as a Test, but as a standalone.
This match ended in a victory for Australia

1.812 seconds.
