Life in the UK Exam 7
What is the name of the most famous cricket competition played between England and Australia?
Correct Answer: The Ashes
The Ashes is a Test cricket series played between England and Australia, one of the oldest rivalries in international sport.
The name comes from a satirical 1882 obituary declaring that English cricket had "died" after a home defeat — and its "ashes" were being taken to Australia.
