He spoke of them several times over the course of the tour, and the Australian media quickly caught on.

There is no indication that this was the accepted name for the series, at least not in England. The term became popular again in Australia first, when <a href="/w/index.php?title=George_Giffen&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="George Giffen (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">George Giffen</a>, in his memoirs (With Bat and Ball, 1899), used the term as if it were well known.<a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a> The true and global revitalisation of interest in the concept dates from 1903, when <a href="/w/index.php?title=Plum_Warner&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Plum Warner (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Pelham Warner</a> took a team to Australia with the promise that he would regain "the ashes". As had been the case on Bligh's tour 20 years before, the Australian media latched fervently onto the term and, this time, it stuck.

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. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1884_සිට_1896">1884 සිට 1896</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=%E0%B6%85%E0%B7%85%E0%B7%94_%E0%B6%B6%E0%B6%B3%E0%B7%94%E0%B6%B1_%E0%B6%AD%E0%B6%BB%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%8F%E0%B7%80%E0%B6%BD%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%BA&action=edit&section=3" title="ඡේදය සංස්කරණය: 1884 සිට 1896">සංස්කරණය</a>]</div> After Bligh's victory, there was an extended period of English dominance. The tours generally had fewer Tests in the 1880s and 1890s than people have grown accustomed to in more recent years, the first five-Test series taking place only in 1894–95. England lost only four Ashes Tests in the 1880s out of 23 played, and they won all the seven series contested. There was more chopping and changing in the teams, given that there was no official board of selectors for each country (in 1887–88, two separate English teams were on tour in Australia) and popularity with the fans varied. The 1890s games were more closely fought, Australia taking their first series win since 1882 with a 2–1 victory in 1891–92. But England dominated, winning the next three series to 1896 despite continuing player disputes.

It should be borne in mind that Tests in Australia prior to the war were all played to a finish. Many batting records were set in this period. The 1934 Ashes series began with the notable absence of Larwood, Voce and Jardine. The MCC had made it clear, in light of the revelations of the bodyline series, that these players would not face Australia. It should be noted that the MCC, although it had earlier condoned and encouraged [<a href="/wiki/%E0%B7%80%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%9A%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%B4%E0%B7%93%E0%B6%A9%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%BA%E0%B7%8F:%E0%B6%AD%E0%B7%84%E0%B7%80%E0%B7%94%E0%B6%BB%E0%B7%94_%E0%B6%9A%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%BB%E0%B7%93%E0%B6%B8%E0%B6%9A%E0%B7%8A_%E0%B6%85%E0%B7%80%E0%B7%81%E0%B7%8A%E2%80%8D%E0%B6%BA%E0%B6%BA%E0%B7%92" title="විකිපීඩියා:තහවුරු කිරීමක් අවශ්‍යයි">තහවුරු කර නොමැත</a>] bodyline tactics in the 1932–33 series, laid the blame on Larwood when relations turned sour. Larwood was forced by the MCC to either apologise or be removed from the Test side. He went for the latter. Australia recovered the Ashes in 1934 and held them until 1953, though no Test cricket was played during the Second World War. As in 1930, the 1934 series was decided in the final Test at The Oval. Australia, batting first, posted a massive 701 in the first innings. Bradman (244) and Ponsford (266) were in record-breaking form with a partnership of 451 for the second wicket. England eventually faced a massive 707-run target for victory and failed, Australia winning the series 2–1.<a href="#cite_note-18">[18]</a> This made Woodfull the only captain to regain the Ashes and he retired upon his return to Australia. In 1936–37 Bradman succeeded Woodfull as Australian captain. He started badly, losing the first two Tests heavily after Australia were caught on <a href="/w/index.php?title=Sticky_wicket&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Sticky wicket (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">sticky wickets</a>. However, the Australians fought back and Bradman won his first series in charge 3–2. The 1938 series was a high-scoring affair with two high-scoring draws, resulting in a 1–1 result, Australia retaining the Ashes. After the first two matches ended in stalemate and the Third Test at Old Trafford never started due to rain. Australia then scraped home by five wickets inside three days in a low-scoring match at Headingley to retain the urn. In the timeless Fifth Test at The Oval, the highlight was <a href="/w/index.php?title=Len_Hutton&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Len Hutton (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Len Hutton</a>'s then world-record score of 364 as England made 903-7 declared.

The Ashes resumed after the war when England toured in 1946–47 and, as in 1920–21, found that Australia had made the better post-war recovery. Still captained by Bradman and now featuring the potent new-ball partnership of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Ray_Lindwall&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Ray Lindwall (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Ray Lindwall</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Keith_Miller&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Keith Miller (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Keith Miller</a>, Australia were convincing 3–0 winners.

Australia promptly seized the initiative, won the First Test convincingly and inaugurated a dominant post-war era. The controversy over the Ikin catch was one of the biggest disputes of the era. In 1948 Australia set new standards, completely outplaying their hosts to win 4–0 with one draw. This <a href="/w/index.php?title=Australian_cricket_team_in_England_in_1948&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Australian cricket team in England in 1948 (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Australian team</a>, led by Bradman, who turned 40 during his final tour of England, has gone down in history as The Invincibles. Playing 34 matches on tour—three of which were not first-class—and including the five Tests, they remained unbeaten, winning 27 and drawing 7. Bradman's men were greeted by packed crowds across the country, and records for Test attendances in England were set in the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Second_Test,_1948_Ashes_series&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Second Test, 1948 Ashes series (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Second</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Fourth_Test,_1948_Ashes_series&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Fourth Test, 1948 Ashes series (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Fourth Tests</a> at Lord's and Headingley respectively. Before a record attendance of spectators at Headingley, Australia set a world record by chasing down 404 on the last day for a seven-wicket victory. The 1948 series ended with one of the most poignant moments in cricket history, as Bradman played his final innings for Australia in the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Fifth_Test,_1948_Ashes_series&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Fifth Test, 1948 Ashes series (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Fifth Test</a> at The Oval, needing to score only four runs to end with a career <a href="/w/index.php?title=Batting_average&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Batting average (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">batting average</a> of exactly 100.

Australia consolidated their status as the leading team in world cricket with a hard-fought 2–1 away series. After narrowly winning the Second Test at Lord's, dubbed "The Battle of the Ridge" because of a protrusion on the pitch that caused erratic bounce, Australia mounted a comeback on the final day of the Fourth Test at Old Trafford and sealed the series after a heavy collapse during the English runchase. The tempo of the play changed over the next four series in the 1960s, held in 1962–63, 1964, 1965–66 and 1968. The powerful array of bowlers that both countries boasted in the preceding decade moved into retirement, and their replacements were of lesser quality, making it more difficult to force a result. England failed to win any series during the 1960s, a period dominated by draws as teams found it more prudent to save face than risk losing. Of the 20 Tests played during the four series, Australia won four and England three. As they held the Ashes, Australian captains <a href="/w/index.php?title=Bob_Simpson_(cricketer)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Bob Simpson (cricketer) (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Bob Simpson</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Bill_Lawry&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Bill Lawry (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Bill Lawry</a> were happy to adopt safety-first tactics and their strategy of sedate batting saw many draws. During this period, spectator attendances dropped and media condemnation increased, but Simpson and Lawry flatly disregarded the public dissatisfaction. It was in the 1960s that the bipolar dominance of England and Australia in world cricket was seriously challenged for the first time. West Indies defeated England twice in the mid-1960s and South Africa, in two series before they were banned for <a href="/w/index.php?title=Apartheid&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Apartheid (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">apartheid</a>, completely outplayed Australia 3–1 and 4–0.

Lawry was not informed of the decision privately and heard his fate over the radio.<a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1972_සිට_1987">1972 සිට 1987</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=%E0%B6%85%E0%B7%85%E0%B7%94_%E0%B6%B6%E0%B6%B3%E0%B7%94%E0%B6%B1_%E0%B6%AD%E0%B6%BB%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%8F%E0%B7%80%E0%B6%BD%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%BA&action=edit&section=10" title="ඡේදය සංස්කරණය: 1972 සිට 1987">සංස්කරණය</a>]</div> The 1972 series finished 2–2, with England under Illingworth retaining the Ashes.<a href="#cite_note-24">[24]</a> In the 1974–75 series, with the England team breaking up and their best batsman Geoff Boycott refusing to play, Australian pace bowlers <a href="/w/index.php?title=Jeff_Thomson&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Jeff Thomson (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Jeff Thomson</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Dennis_Lillee&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Dennis Lillee (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Dennis Lillee</a> wreaked havoc.

WSC came after an era during which the duopoly of Australian and English dominance dissipated; the Ashes had long been seen as a cricket world championship but the rise of the West Indies in the late 1970s challenged that view. The West Indies would go on to record resounding Test series wins over Australia and England and dominated world cricket until the 1990s.

Australia's build-up to the <a href="/w/index.php?title=2013_Ashes_series&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="2013 Ashes series (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">2013 Ashes series</a> was far from ideal. <a href="/w/index.php?title=Darren_Lehmann&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Darren Lehmann (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Darren Lehmann</a> took over as coach from <a href="/w/index.php?title=Mickey_Arthur&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Mickey Arthur (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Mickey Arthur</a><a href="#cite_note-40">[40]</a> following a string of poor results.

England's second-innings total of 375 set Australia a target of 311, against which they fell short by only 14 runs in a tense finish. In the Second Test, England beat Australia by 347 runs in a very one-sided contest. In the Third Test, held at a newly refurbished Old Trafford, Australia won the toss and elected to bat first. They amassed a commanding score of 527–7, led by captain Michael Clarke's 187. The pressure was then on the home side to avoid the follow-on. England scored 368 with a century for Kevin Pietersen. Australia's second innings score was 172–7 at the end of Day 4, characterised by batting order changes to achieve a fast run rate to allow enough time to bowl England out amid inclement weather forecasts. Australia declared overnight to post England a target of 332 to win. Contrary to expectations, play resumed with only a minor delay on Day 5, and with captain Alastair Cook being bowled out for 0 (his first duck in 26 innings as captain), Australia looked to be in with a significant chance of a win, keeping their series hopes alive. By lunch England were 37–3, but on resumption of play only 3 balls were bowled before rain stopped play. This rain persisted and, at 16:40, the captains shook hands and the match was declared a draw. With England 2–0 up with two tests to play, England retained the Ashes on 5 August 2013.<a href="#cite_note-42">[42]</a> In the Fourth Test, England won the toss and batted first, putting on 238 runs, Australia took a narrow lead scoring 270 in their first innings. In the second innings England scored 330, Ian Bell top-scoring with 113. Needing only 298 runs to win Australia was in a strong position at 138/2, only 160 short with eight wickets in hand. Following a rain delay, Australia crashed to a 74-run defeat, losing all eight wickets for only 86 runs. England had taken 9 wickets in the final session of the fourth day. Stuart Broad was England's top wicket-taker in the match with 11 wickets. England held a 3–0 lead going into the final Fifth Test at The Oval. The final Test was drawn. On the fourth day no play was possible due to rain, but on the final day after an aggressive Australian declaration, England came close to achieving its first 4–0 victory in an Ashes series. Play was abandoned, owing to bad light, denying a thrilling finish to the large crowd of spectators. There was media criticism of the new ICC rules requiring umpires to stop play when failing light was measured at a specified level.<a href="#cite_note-43">[43]</a> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%9C%E0%B6%B1%E0%B7%94%E0%B7%80:Australia_won_the_Ashes_5-0.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f9/Australia_won_the_Ashes_5-0.jpg/240px-Australia_won_the_Ashes_5-0.jpg" decoding="async" width="240" height="135" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f9/Australia_won_the_Ashes_5-0.jpg/360px-Australia_won_the_Ashes_5-0.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f9/Australia_won_the_Ashes_5-0.jpg/480px-Australia_won_the_Ashes_5-0.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3920" data-file-height="2204" /></a><figcaption><a href="/w/index.php?title=2013-14_%E0%B6%85%E0%B7%85%E0%B7%94_%E0%B6%B6%E0%B6%B3%E0%B7%94%E0%B6%B1_%E0%B6%AD%E0%B6%BB%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%8F%E0%B7%80%E0%B6%BD%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%BA&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="2013-14 අළු බඳුන තරගාවලිය (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">2013-14 අළු බඳුන තරගාවලිය</a> ඕස්ට්‍රේලියාව ජයගත් අවස්ථාව.</figcaption></figure> In the second of two Ashes series held in 2013 (the series ended in 2014), this time hosted by Australia, the home team won the series five test matches to nil. This was the third time Australia has completed a clean sweep (or "whitewash") in Ashes history, a feat never matched by England. All six specialist Australian batsmen scored more runs than any Englishman with 10 centuries between them, with only debutant Ben Stokes scoring a century for England. Mitchell Johnson took 37 English wickets at 13.97 and Ryan Harris 22 wickets at 19.31 in the 5-Test series <a href="#cite_note-44">[44]</a>. Only Stuart Broad and all-rounder Stokes bowled effectively for England, with their spinner Graeme Swann retiring due to a chronic elbow injury after the decisive Third Test. Australia came into the next Ashes series in England as favourites to retain the Ashes. Although England won the first Test in Cardiff, Australia won comfortably in the second Test at Lords. In the next two Tests, the Australian batsmen struggled, being bowled out for 136 in the first innings at <a href="/w/index.php?title=Edgbaston&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Edgbaston (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Edgbaston</a> , with England proceeding to win by eight wickets.

Australia were criticised for being too reliant on captain Steve Smith and vice-captain David Warner, while England was said to have a shoddy middle to lower order. Off the field, England all-rounder Ben Stokes was ruled out of the side indefinitely due to a police investigation. England won the toss in the first test match in Brisbane and elected to bat. Despite losing Alistair Cook early they thrived on the unusually slow pitch and were well placed before Patrick Cummins removed opener Mark Stoneman and Nathan Lyon abruptly ended James Vince's innings with a brilliant run out. England eventually went on to make 302. Australia, however, started terribly, with debutant Bancroft, Khawaja, Warner and Handscomb all falling early. A partnership between Steve Smith and Shaun Marsh ensured Australia wouldn't be blown away, before Smith then paired with Patrick Cummins to see Australia pass England's score. Facing a first-innings deficit, England again lost Alistair Cook early, but Joe Root was able to steady the ship. After he was removed by Josh Hazlewood, little resistance was provided, and the Aussies only required 170 to win from tea on day four. Openers Warner and Bancroft easily saw Australia through to a 10 wicket win over the next two sessions. Having won the second Test at Adelaide by 120 runs, Australia regained The Ashes with an innings and 41 run win in the third Test at Perth, the final Ashes Test at the WACA Ground.<a href="#cite_note-reclaim-45">[45]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="අළු_බඳුන_කුසලානය">අළු බඳුන කුසලානය</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=%E0%B6%85%E0%B7%85%E0%B7%94_%E0%B6%B6%E0%B6%B3%E0%B7%94%E0%B6%B1_%E0%B6%AD%E0%B6%BB%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%8F%E0%B7%80%E0%B6%BD%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%BA&action=edit&section=14" title="ඡේදය සංස්කරණය: අළු බඳුන කුසලානය">සංස්කරණය</a>]</div> <div class="rellink relarticle mainarticle" style="font-style:italic; padding-left:2em;">ප්‍රධාන ලිපිය: <a href="/w/index.php?title=%E0%B6%85%E0%B7%85%E0%B7%94_%E0%B6%B6%E0%B6%B3%E0%B7%94%E0%B6%B1_%E0%B6%9A%E0%B7%94%E0%B7%83%E0%B6%BD%E0%B7%8F%E0%B6%B1%E0%B6%BA&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="අළු බඳුන කුසලානය (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">අළු බඳුන කුසලානය</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%9C%E0%B6%B1%E0%B7%94%E0%B7%80:Ashes_Urn_1921.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/98/Ashes_Urn_1921.jpg/220px-Ashes_Urn_1921.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="242" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/98/Ashes_Urn_1921.jpg/330px-Ashes_Urn_1921.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/98/Ashes_Urn_1921.jpg/440px-Ashes_Urn_1921.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1500" data-file-height="1651" /></a><figcaption>පැරණිතම අළු බඳුන කුසලානය</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%9C%E0%B6%B1%E0%B7%94%E0%B7%80:Rupertswood_mansion_side_angle_shot.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/49/Rupertswood_mansion_side_angle_shot.jpg/220px-Rupertswood_mansion_side_angle_shot.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/49/Rupertswood_mansion_side_angle_shot.jpg/330px-Rupertswood_mansion_side_angle_shot.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/49/Rupertswood_mansion_side_angle_shot.jpg/440px-Rupertswood_mansion_side_angle_shot.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1200" data-file-height="900" /></a><figcaption><a href="/w/index.php?title=%E0%B6%89%E0%B7%80%E0%B7%9D_%E0%B6%B6%E0%B7%8A%E0%B6%BD%E0%B7%92%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%8A&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="ඉවෝ බ්ලිග් (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">ඉවෝ බ්ලිග්</a> විසින් අළු බඳුන කුසලානය තිළිණ කළ ස්ථානය.</figcaption></figure> As it took many years for the name "the Ashes" to be given to ongoing series between England and Australia, there was no concept of there being a representation of the ashes being presented to the winners. As late as 1925 the following verse appeared in The Cricketers Annual: <blockquote> <div class="poem"> So here's to Chapman, Hendren and Hobbs, Gilligan, Woolley and Hearne May they bring back to the Motherland, The ashes which have no urn! </div></blockquote> Nevertheless, several attempts had been made to embody the Ashes in a physical memorial. Examples include one presented to Warner in 1904, another to Australian captain M. A. Noble in 1909, and another to Australian captain W. M. Woodfull in 1934. The oldest, and the one to enjoy enduring fame, was the one presented to Bligh, later Lord Darnley, during the 1882–83 tour. The precise nature of the origin of <a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ashes_urn&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="The Ashes urn (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">this urn</a> is matter of dispute. Based on a statement by Darnley in 1894, it was believed that a group of <a href="/wiki/Victoria_(Australia)" class="mw-redirect" title="Victoria (Australia)">Victorian</a> ladies, including Darnley's later wife <a href="/w/index.php?title=Florence_Bligh,_Countess_of_Darnley&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Florence Bligh, Countess of Darnley (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Florence Morphy</a>, made the presentation after the victory in the Third Test in 1883. More recent researchers, in particular Ronald Willis<a href="#cite_note-46">[46]</a> and Joy Munns<a href="#cite_note-47">[47]</a> have studied the tour in detail and concluded that the presentation was made after a private cricket match played over Christmas 1882 when the English team were guests of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Sir_William_John_Clarke&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Sir William John Clarke (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Sir William Clarke</a>, at his property "<a href="/w/index.php?title=Rupertswood&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Rupertswood (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Rupertswood</a>", in <a href="/w/index.php?title=Sunbury,_Victoria&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Sunbury, Victoria (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Sunbury, Victoria</a>. This was before the matches had started. The prime evidence for this theory was provided by a descendant of Clarke. In August 1926 Ivo Bligh (now Lord Darnley) displayed the Ashes urn at the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Morning_Post&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Morning Post (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Morning Post</a> Decorative Art Exhibition held in the Central Hall, Westminster. He made the following statement about how he was given the urn:<a href="#cite_note-48">[48]</a> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r500201">.mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 40px}.mw-parser-output .templatequote .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;padding-left:1.6em;margin-top:0}</style><blockquote class="templatequote">When in the autumn the English Eleven went to Australia it was said that they had come to Australia to "fetch" the ashes. England won two out of the three matches played against Murdoch's Australian Eleven, and after the third match some Melbourne ladies put some ashes into a small urn and gave them to me as captain of the English Eleven.</blockquote> 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. Her speech was reported by the London Times as follows:<a href="#cite_note-49">[49]</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r500201"><blockquote class="templatequote">In 1882, she said, it was first spoken of when the Sporting Times, after the Australians had thoroughly beaten the English at the Oval, wrote an obituary in affectionate memory of English cricket "whose demise was deeply lamented and the body would be cremated and taken to Australia". Her husband, then Ivo Bligh, took a team to Australia in the following year. Punch had a poem containing the words "When Ivo comes back with the urn" and when Ivo Bligh wiped out the defeat Lady Clarke, wife of Sir W. J. Clarke, who entertained the English so lavishly, found a little wooden urn, burnt a bail, put the ashes in the urn, and wrapping it in a red velvet bag, put it into her husband's (Ivo Bligh's) hands. He had always regarded it as a great treasure.</blockquote> There is another statement which is not totally clear made by Lord Darnley in 1921 about the timing of the presentation of the urn. He was interviewed in his home at Cobham Hall by Montague Grover and the report of this interview was as follows:<a href="#cite_note-50">[50]</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r500201"><blockquote class="templatequote">This urn was presented to Lord Darnley by some ladies of Melbourne after the final defeat of his team, and before he returned with the members to England.</blockquote> He made a similar statement in 1926. The report of this statement in the Brisbane Courier was as follows:<a href="#cite_note-51">[51]</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r500201"><blockquote class="templatequote">The proudest possession of Lord Darnley is an earthenware urn containing the ashes which were presented to him by Melbourne residents when he captained the Englishmen in 1882. Though the team did not win, the urn containing the ashes was sent to him just before leaving Melbourne.</blockquote> The contents of the urn are also problematic; they were variously reported to be the remains of a stump, bail or the outer casing of a ball, but in 1998 Darnley's 82-year-old daughter-in-law said they were the remains of her mother-in-law's veil, casting a further layer of doubt on the matter. However, during the tour of Australia in 2006/7, the MCC official accompanying the urn said the veil legend had been discounted, and it was now "95% certain" that the urn contains the ashes of a cricket bail. Speaking on Channel Nine TV on 25 November 2006, he said x-rays of the urn had shown the pedestal and handles were cracked, and repair work had to be carried out. The urn is made of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Terracotta&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Terracotta (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">terracotta</a> and is about 6 අඟල් (150 mm) tall and may originally have been a perfume jar. <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/%E0%B6%9C%E0%B7%9C%E0%B6%B1%E0%B7%94%E0%B7%80:Ashes_song.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Ashes_song.jpg/220px-Ashes_song.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="372" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2d/Ashes_song.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="289" data-file-height="489" /></a><figcaption>අළු බඳුන තේමා ගීතය</figcaption></figure> A label containing a six-line verse is pasted on the urn.

It is in fact a private memento, and for this reason it is never awarded to either England or Australia, but is kept permanently in the MCC Cricket Museum where it can be seen together with the specially made red and gold velvet bag and the scorecard of the 1882 match. Because the urn itself is so delicate, it has been allowed to travel to Australia only twice. The first occasion was in 1988 for a museum tour as part of the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Australian_Bicentenary&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Australian Bicentenary (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Australian Bicentenary</a> celebrations; the second was for the 2006/7 Ashes series.<a href="#cite_note-52">[52]</a> The urn arrived on 17 October 2006, going on display at the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Museum_of_Sydney&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Museum of Sydney (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Museum of Sydney</a>. It then toured to other states, with the final appearance at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery on 21 January 2007. 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. As its condition is fragile and it is a prized exhibit at the MCC Cricket Museum, the MCC would not agree. Furthermore, in 2002, Bligh's great-great-grandson Lord Clifton, the heir-apparent to the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Earl_of_Darnley&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Earl of Darnley (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Earldom of Darnley</a>, 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. As a compromise, the MCC commissioned a trophy in the form of a larger replica of the urn in <a href="/w/index.php?title=Waterford_Crystal&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Waterford Crystal (පිටුව නොපවතියි)">Waterford Crystal</a>, to award to the winning team of each series from 1998–99. This is known as the Ashes Trophy.<a href="#cite_note-53">[53]</a> This did little to diminish the status of the Darnley urn as the most important icon in cricket, the symbol of this old and keenly fought contest. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="තරගාවලි_සාරාංශය">තරගාවලි සාරාංශය</h2>[<a
