Warne's performance in that series was simply incredible. He took 40 wickets and stood up and took responsibility when his side were struggling.

Literally, cricket peaked here. This level of perfection and excitement will never happen in Cricket ever! As a 13-year-old, I remember watching this series from my ancestral house in India.

2005 Ashes series.......One of the most exciting Ashes series ever played between the two arch nemesis...... Still fresh in mind.

Always sad seeing Warne on these programmes now. I have never felt sad about a famous person passing away before but it was different when he passed away. Maybe it was due to how young he was in terms of things. Also, I'd seen him start his career in test cricket and he was a good bloke as well by the looks of it. Yes he made mistakes in his life, but who hasn't?? I always liked his stories, interviews and commentary as well. He's sadly missed. RIP.

Due to England losing 3 or 4 of that 2005 team to bad injury and mental health issues in the following couple of years. If that 2005 England team had played in the 2006/07 Ashes series, all fit and firing, it wouldn't have been 5-0 to Australia. Yes, Australia still would have won the series, because they were so fired up and motivated. It probably would have been 3-1, or 3-2 to Australia if every game had seen a positive result and not any draws.

The entire series was like a hichkouk movie.thrill suspense agony and what not. Never again we will watch such a series fingers cross

It was a classic up there with 81 so sad to see Shane Warne RIP 🪦 Sadly Missed I saw him in 97 at Headingley and again in 2005 at Old Trafford from start to finish it was mouth watering I still think 🤔 we are going to lose at Edgebaston I was that nervous I was on the toilet when Warne stood on his stumps 🤘😄 and after Harms got the last wicket I just jumped all over my Dad 👨 that is the best test match ever

India toured Pakistan and won the series. Pakistan toured india and won the series. that was cricket at its best another recent one comes to mind.... westindies winning .... and that champions song. also with stokes test match innings single handedly winning it.... even an odi series between england australia and bangladesh .... so historic when bangladesh beat australia and england both in matches .... the 2007 wc... when india and Pakistan getting knocked out in first stages. before franchise cricket.... every tour had a whole build up.... and more teams were competitive.... like kenya in one of the world cup..... reaching the semi i think....

For some reason I absolutely find this interesting and cringy at the same time. Ffs, England has literally been stomped over by the Aussies for almost 2 decades up until this point, home and away. Now that they won once for the first time in 2 decades, they make this super cringy documentary about why they were so destined to win, only to barely win it 2:1 on home soil, without Mcgrath bowling for nearly two matches and more importantly to be obliterated 5:0 down under right in the next Ashes.

@ianraper4304

Actually, there were several series that are superior to this one ('74/75', '89 etc etc etc) but the sad fact is that England won this series by three runs - and even then only because Australia's final bat was incorrectly given out caught behind when the ball came off the batsman's side/hip, not the bat. However, the most interesting thing about this series is what you mention in your final sentence - England won 2-1 on home soil but lost 5-0 in the next series so something went haywire somewhere and in only 18 months or so. Further, the series which had started this latest series of losses (for England) was 1989 and previews of that series could not decide the eventual winner (Australia ended up winning 4-0). Some very interesting outcomes over time indeed.

When we went to Australia in 2006/07, we were missing Vaughan, Simon Jones and Trescothick. Harmison was nowhere near the fearsome fast bowler he was in 2005. Plus Australia were angry and were going to do whatever they could to get the Ashes back. I would say that if the England team that played so well in 2005 went to Australia in 06/07, the exact same team, it wouldn't have been 5-0. I would say that Australia would have still won the series, but it would have been a lot closer. Maybe 2-1 with a couple of drawn tests. Or even 3-2 if we got a result in every test match.

​@@CricketEngland The fact you're doing it on such a poor metric that doesn't tell you much at all, as total runs is ridiculous. Run totals or wickets totals only proves generally longevity not how great you are. Just because you can get a gig in a the England team young and be above average for 12 years, you're gonna stack up runs but it's meaningless and if you actually knew cricket you'd know that. Just to show how stupid you way is, check this out, Dale Steyn is well down on the wicket taking charts, way less than Anderson, which according to you means he's inferior. But everyone else in the world knows Steyn is one of the all time great ballers averaging 22.95 but he's only got 439 wickets to Anderons 700 wickets at 26.92. That also means he's better than Malcolm Marshall. Ambrose, Lillie, Garner, Donald etc etc. that there just makes your theory come tumbling down. KP played for England in tests from 2005 to 2013, one dayers the year before so 2004 and 2005 to 2013 for T20, that's a short career , basically 8 years he put all those numbers up which are in all formats 13779 runs, total average 45.3 in just 340 innings. There's only Cook and Root scored more runs but they've done it in far more games especially Root he scored 19151 at an average 47.11 in 475 inning. Cook as scored 15737 runs at an average of 41.88 in 387 innings. Strauss has got more runs than guys like Buttler, Bairstow, Morgan, Stokes, so has Ian Bell who's 4th most run for England plus he's got more than Gooch and Stewart. Collingwood is down at 14th. Stokes has now played 12 years in odi's and 11 in Tests. Buttlers on his 11/12 years as a one day plater and 8 as a test player, Root is on 12 years as a test player, 10 as a one day player, 7 years as a T20 player. The fact is I've followed England for over 40 years and no one comes close IMO to the genius of KP, no one has invented shots the way he has, the way he changed the game by trying to hit the best bowlers out of the attack had never really been seen before regularly, to so many of his great innings in Tests cricket that people you've listed wished they could play regularly. Where KP stands in modern English cricket is either at the top, or if you prefer Root's way of playing which is fairly basic you could put him there, but as far as putting bums on seats I've never seen another player from England do it like KP. Facts are he averages better than all those in tests apart from Root, KP averages 47.33 tests, 40.73 odi's and 37.93 in Int t20. Root averages 49.72, in ODi's 47.6 and in T20's 35.7. Even comparing against Root who's a far different player, who doesn't go out to entertain and IMO hasn't faced the quality of bowlers as KP did in his career. KP faced all time greats like Steyn, McGrath, Warne, Murali, who's Root really faced Cummins, Ashwin? hardly the same. Even comparing against Buttler who's played 118 T20i's to Kp's 38, is not an intelligent way to gauge ability is it. KP was England's best t20 player, won them their first world cup and was player of the tournamnet and the first player to be NO1 ranked in the world for a couple of years. Buttler averages 31.94 in Tests, 39.54 in his 181 one day games to KP's 136 and 34.84 in his 57 T20 to KP's 37. So if we go by stats our supposed best white ball cricketer lacks when it comes to them, he's just played more games. Morgan who was crap at test cricket, averages 20 in tests, 39 in Odi's and 28 in T20's, again non are as good as KP's. KP even had to wait a few years to qualify and sit out so didn't get the games in say like Root has, especially when he was easily the best player in the country for at least 3 years before he got picked. Plus he tore his achilles in 2009 and it took a year or more for him to get back into form. Plus he suffered from bruised bone in his leg that made him come home from a NZ tour and affected his last couple of years. i seriously don't know how you've got guys like Botham, Flintoff and Stokes against him, non are anywhere near as consistant as what KP is, sure they' were/are capable of great knocks but their stats lag well behind but they are allrounders. Botham averages 33 in tests and 23 in odi's , so why bring him up?Flintoff 31.77 in tests and 32 in odi's. Stokes averages 35 in tests, 41 in odi and 21 in T20, so apart from odi's where it's 0.5 higher, which tbf he out of everyone should have a good average, the team that England built and allowed them to play the game is far better and way more freely than in KP's day .I bet KP would have loved to play the one day game under their management that won the one day world cup and T20, it's basically how KP played anyway. Lets face it they all want to play like KP nowaways when before he used to get berrared for giving his wicket away. Gower different era and wasn't as good against the best bowlers of his time, same as Stewert averaged 39 in tests and 31 in odi's. I mean seriously Collingwood, he struggled to get in the side at times, 40 in tests, 35 in odi's and 18 in t20's they are all nowhere near when you compare all their stats, so what are you going on about?.Botham was nowhere near the batsman KP was and he'd tell you that himself, that and his average is poor especially when he came up against the west Indies, whereas KP thrived against the best bowlers of his era like Warne, Murali, McGrath, Steyn, morkel, Johnson, Harris I honestly can't believe I responded to this because even KP haters recognise he's one of the best to play for England in decades. What's he done to you to bring up morgan, Flintoff Bairstow, , Stewart, Morgan, Collingwood ? and to use a metric such as total runs scored. There's guys in County Cricket that have taken loads of wickets and scored loads of runs but thats because they've played for nearly 20 years, not a good metric,.

Firstly 5 year old, go and see your Primary school English teacher and ask her to teach you properly how to spell, and then we might know what the fuck you are trying to say.

06/07 was better

Beautifully scripted and edited.

4th test... ricky ponting win the toss and bat? i think england batted first.

1:08:43

1:02:41 Eh?

Being an Aussie I find it quite funny that the best series was England in 05, closely followed by India in 01… We lost both, but the contests were next level. Admittedly, this English side was not full of Englishmen, was more like the United Nations 😂😁😂

McGrath injury was the difference - England can talk it up but that played a huge part and in my opinion if he played ENGLAND would have lost the ashes.... but a great series I will never forget

Ok now let's see 2007 Ashes

So an ashes series that one side whitewashed the other was better than a close series than went down to the wire…. What a JOKE you really are

Peter Hayter sounds totally out of his depth talking about cricket. I genuinely switch off when he talks

Daily Mail. ‘Nuff said.

Tis not the greatest ashes ever . Tis the ashes in which the poms used lollies and cheated their way to victory and also like a lotto win Glen went home

And your evidence to back that up is where? No charges of fines were brought by the ICC against England during that ashes.

Firstly where you got the lollies rubbish from, that's made up crap,, that came from the fact that some of the England team sucked sweets, which isn't cheating as the Aussies chewed gum as well.Irf it was illegal the umpires would have straight called anyone of them out from either side, so you're talking crap . How can the Aussies say anything about cheating when they've been caught red handed with sandpaper because they couldn't get the ball to swing and had a few of their best players band for quiet some time. Also Glen didn't go home he played at the oval in the 5th test It's like saying KP missed 3 Tests in the next home series 2009 because he tore his achiles tendon at a time when he was ranked the best player in the world, but England fans don't bring it up because they still won.

2 much talking not enough highlights

06 was better ;)

soccer? really?

Eng were a so average team in this era

No they wasn't at all that's why there was hype going into the series.They were ranked 2 in the world behind Aus and had just come back from SA after beating them also. It was just a shame the next series we lost Vaughn the Captain after this, Jones never played for England again through injury, neither did Trechotick and Harmison wasn't the same fast bowler after an injury and they made Freddie Captain, which was a terrible call.

Best series of all time ? Pretentious crap. The worst. Matches fouled up and abbreviated and uselessly abridged by rain. Not a case of interruptions being a legitimate inflection, but, rather, matches arriving at half-assed outcomes. Things such as Micheal Clarke whining to go off the field because of rain drizzle but Mathew Hayden disagreeing because he knew that Australia seriously needed runs at the time.

It was a great series and if you think not you don’t know much about cricket…. And you can’t say it wasn’t when you don’t say what was.
