The last time Great Britain WON an Ashes Series Test match

Throwing it back to 2001 when Great Britain last emerged victorious in an Ashes test match against Australia!

Ever wondered when our last victory in an Ashes Series Test match took place?

Let's rewind to 2001, where that year's opening Ashes test took place in Huddersfield, and proved to be a memorable day for Great Britain and England legend Paul Sculthorpe. 

Will we get to taste similar success in the 2025 ABK Beer Ashes Series which starts this Saturday?
