The Ashes is a Test cricket series played between England and Australia since 1882.

A series of " The Ashes " comprises five Test matches, two innings per match, under the regular rules for Test match cricket.

If a series is drawn then the country already holding the Ashes retains them.

The English media dubbed the next English tour to Australia ( 1882 – 83 ) as the quest to regain The Ashes.

The urn is erroneously believed by some to be the trophy of the Ashes series, but it has never been formally adopted as such and Bligh always considered it to be a personal gift.

Replicas of the urn are often held aloft by victorious teams as a symbol of their victory in an Ashes series, but the actual urn has never been presented or displayed as a trophy in this way.

Whichever side holds the Ashes, the urn normally remains in the Marylebone Cricket Club Museum at Lord's since being presented to the MCC by Bligh's widow upon his death.

Since the 1998 – 99 Ashes series, a Waterford Crystal representation of the Ashes urn has been presented to the winners of an Ashes series as the official trophy of that series.

England is the current holder after winning the Ashes in 2009 and again in the 2010 / 11 series in Australia.

The first Test match between England and Australia was played in 1877, though the Ashes legend started later, after the ninth Test, played in 1882.

In the 20 years following Bligh's campaign the term " The Ashes " largely disappeared from public use.

Having fulfilled his promise, Warner published a book entitled How We Recovered The Ashes.

The first mention of " The Ashes " in Wisden Cricketers ' Almanack occurs in 1905, while Wisdens first account of the legend is in the 1922 edition.

As it took many years for the name " The Ashes " to be given to the ongoing series between England and Australia, there was no concept of there being a representation of the ashes being presented to the winners.

Nevertheless, several attempts had been made to embody The Ashes in a physical memorial.

In August 1926 Ivo Bligh ( now Lord Darnley ) displayed the Ashes Urn at the Morning Post Decorative Art Exhibition held in the Central Hall, Westminster.

A more detailed account of how the Ashes were given to Ivo Bligh was outlined by his wife, the Countess of Darnley, in 1930 during a speech at a cricket luncheon.

The 1921 first published photo of the Ashes Urn used in a montage by the Perth Western Mail in 1924.

The first occasion was in 1988 for a museum tour as part of the Australian Bicentenary celebrations ; the second was for the 2006 / 7 Ashes series.

In the 1990s, given Australia's long dominance of the Ashes and the popular acceptance of the Darnley urn as ‘ The Ashes ’, the idea was mooted that the victorious team should be awarded the urn as a trophy and allowed to retain it until the next series.

Furthermore, in 2002, Bligh's great-great-grandson Lord Clifton, the heir-apparent to the Earldom of Darnley, argued that the Ashes urn should not be returned to Australia because it belonged to his family and was given to the MCC only for safe keeping.
