-- The powerful New York Yankees won their 19th world series in a 5-game romp over outclassed Cincinnati, crushing the Reds in a humiliating 13-5 barrage Monday in the loosely played finale.

The three-match series resulted in a two-one win to England, notwithstanding a fourth match, won by the Australians, whose status remains a matter of ardent dispute.

England lost only four Ashes Tests in the 1880s out of 23 played, and they won all the seven series contested.

The 1894 – 95 series began in sensational fashion when England won the First Test at Sydney by just 10 runs having followed on.

England went on to win the series 3 – 2 after it had been all square before the Final Test, which England won by 6 wickets.

In 1896 England under the captaincy of W G Grace won the series 2 – 1, and this marked the end of England's longest period of Ashes dominance.

Australia resoundingly won the 1897 – 98 series by 4 – 1 under the captaincy of Harry Trott.

His successor Joe Darling won the next three series in 1899, 1901 – 02 and the classic 1902 series, which became one of the most famous in the history of Test cricket.

In 1905 England's captain Stanley Jackson not only won the series 2 – 0, but also won the toss in all five matches and headed both the batting and the bowling averages.

However, the Australians fought back and Bradman won his first series in charge 3 – 2.

The tide finally turned in 1953 when England won the final Test at The Oval to take the series 1 – 0, having narrowly evaded defeat in the preceding Test at Headingley.

Bradman rated the team that won the series 2 – 1 as England's best ever.

Australia won 4 – 0 in 1958 – 59, having found a high-quality spinner of their own in new skipper Richie Benaud, who took 31 wickets in the five-Test series, and paceman Alan Davidson, who took 24 wickets at 19. 00.

Of the 20 Tests played during the four series, Australia won four and England three.

Largely assisted by the return of Boycott, Brearley's men won the 1977 series 3 – 0 and then completed an overwhelming 5 – 1 series win against an Australian side missing its WSC players in 1978 – 79.

Then Chris Broad scored three hundreds in successive Tests and bowling successes from Graham Dilley and Gladstone Small meant England won the series 2 – 1.

With several England players having retired or been injured after the 2005 series, Australia regained The Ashes in the 2006 – 07 series with a convincing 5 – 0 victory, the second time an Ashes series has been won by that margin.

After a rain-affected draw at Edgbaston, the fourth match at Headingley was convincingly won by Australia by an innings and 80 runs to level the series.

England bowled Australia out again for 281 and so won a series on Australian soil for the first time in 24 years.

The 2010 – 11 Ashes series is the only one in which a team has won three Tests by innings margins and it was the first time England had scored 500 or more four times in a single series.

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.

The 1938 series was high-scoring affair with many high-scoring draws, resulting in a 1 – 1 result, Australia retaining the Ashes.
