Bringing Harmison back into the team for this game was an absolute masterstroke. Oh, and the run out by Flintoff was absolutely crucial!

Fintoff - Last test. S Clark - Last test. Harmison - Last test

My favourite victory I've seen from England. For me, better than the 2005 Ashes, the 2010/11 Ashes, the 2004 summer, the 2000 breakthrough against Windies, the defeat of India to (briefly) clinch #1 slot in 2011. But The Oval in 2009 meant more to me than any of them - after the defeat at Headingley which felt like "normal service" being resumed, an OK (but no more) 1st innings total, then Stuart Broad's wonderful 5-for & suddenly a match/series I was convinced we'd lose was there for the taking.

After Ponting is run out, you can hear Shane Warne say, 'I can't believe he's been run out'.

@Gavin WJ I do!

I'm just amazed they made 348 in a 4th innings. Rarely these days do teams make 200 in the 4th innings. Just showed it was a series between two high quality sides.

Obviously a class series but the Aussie bowling attack had really tailed off since 07. Hilfy Clark Hauritz young Johnson hardly great players, only Siddle really caught the eye and was that good. But the AUS batsmen were still very good even if their great generation was also coming to an end

Would love to see test cricket on the BBC again,Cricket for all !!!!!!!

I loved Bothams ashes 1981,but England 2005 and 2009 are something quite special and two of the best ever ashes series I think

0:30 - even Harry Potter realises he's just witnessed a bit of magic.

Freddie. Chewing gum. Arms aloft. My favourite sporting memory.

0:30 You are a wizard, Harry!

Just watching this brings back the happy tears!

When england had pace

amazing, along with 05' and 10-11' series. just great stuff. cant wait for this years!

"Australian captain, run out. Australian vice captain, run out"...beautiful words... can't wait for summer '13 for the next Ashes battle!

Potter at 0.28 sec England bringing magic to the grounds :D

How could I have forgotten that Flintoff run out just when it was looking doubtful - iconic

Swann was arguably the best spinner after the retirement of Warne. He retired too early

Bikash Das - Not his choice I'm afraid. His retirement was forced upon him by injury. He is a very good pundit nowadays.

Our tail loved to wag in this series! Broad, Swann and Anderson were full of runs!

One of the best moment in cricket

2:21 Marcus north must go - awesome michael artherton !!!!!

love Prior's appeal at @2:15 !

best series of the ashes a world cricket

that ponting wicket was HUGE. i think if it wasnt for that punter and huss would have got through the day...

Porkerdude the ashes exist because of an incident after Australia's first cricket victory in England. Two men posted an obituary for English cricket in the Times newspaper and a set of bails was cremated in a 'funeral' for the game. Those ashes were placed in an urn and presented to the MCC. In fact the real ashes, the originals are on display at Lords cricket ground and the urn the players hold is a specially made replica. It is for this reason that the Ashes is contested between England and Australia alone. I have no doubt that many amazing players from other nations could provide just as much entertainment but that would NOT be The Ashes.

Nice highlights, would have loved to have seen some side-on replays of the run-outs/stumpings though!

0:29 even harry potter came to saw cricket leaving his Quidditch practice

dude that might be the best moment for you. But for fans of other nations their country winning a series as important as the Ashes is the biggest moment for them, if you didn't know England vs Australia is the biggest test rivalry.

Just love it.

NUMBER ONE NOW!!!!

happy days.

I remember that test, stayed up all night and was heart broken by the end. All we needed to do was play for a draw!! :(

*Le me at 0:29: "That's Harry Fookin' Potter." 😂😂😂😂

2:15 the keeper did not knew he was out but at the last moment

Rather than the death of australian cricket, it should be more along the lines of "rebirth of english cricket" which came back to life after a 5-0 whitewash in 06/07

india winning wc 2011 is best moment. ever. how many england won??

7 years later nice

2:21 Marcus north must go , awesome Michael artherton

Cannot believe this was 4 years ago!

North took 4 wickets wtf

What a lothargic stumping from Matty Prior at @2:15...come on dude

Only realised it was another guy because of his bowling action and because he's playing for ENG.

1882 the Ashes series was born stating that the English Cricket had died and the body lies in that urn... 127 years later Australian cricket fans attack and from 2010 the series should be dubbed "In Affectionate Remembrance of Australian CRICKET, which died at the Oval on 23rd AUGUST, 2009, Deeply lamented by a large circle of sorrowing friends and acquaintances R.I.P. N.B. - The body will be cremated and the ashes taken to England."

ponting run out was the turning point

totally agree mate.

Runout of pointing change history

3.46 Cook puts the ball in his pocket 😄

Oz's first five wickets were all avoidable.

Cummins best aussie fast bowler after glenn mcgrath and jason gillespie

Clarke has been cursed- 2 years ago, he got a triple century and 2 double centuries- what after that? Ponting suddenenly retired after saying he was going to play until end of 2014. Just google: carlyle walles, that bloke is a genius

That's a ridiculous thing to say, that's like in football a Man United fan saying 'we should be able to compete in the merseyside derby, not just Everton and Liverpool'

i thought it was him!

0.28 sec.. it was harry potter whose magic did the job😂😂😂

tremendous by all means..

Swann picks up two early wickets which was leg before wicket.

@DakalakaStreet Yes i tihnk it is - he likes his cricket

Why is this commentary different to the Sky commentary on the dvd highlights???

ASHES SERIES 20013, ENGLAND 2 AUSSIES 0... READ IT AND WEEP

@ageofsagar20009 how about Ponting being the Tendulkar of Australia?!?

The Ashes will only be played for by Australia and England, and always will be. I'm pretty sure India and Pakistan have their own test series, besides the Ashes is the name of OUR test series and has that significance as a small urn was presented by a woman to the players.

@aussiumo There are idiots where ever you go in the world, but their presence makes you appreciate the vast majority of people who are sound. Never been to the east coast of the US, when I do, I'll form an opinion and let you know! Hope you're having a good day where ever are!

omg!omg! look at that crazy crowed.............

More of the same this summer England. However I doubt it will be anywhere near as close

I am sorry... Didn't get you... Sir Don Bradman was the greatest Batsman ever... Tendulkar ain't no one but Ricky Ponting of India....

2.47 look like Hilfenhaus!

Pause at 0:22. What on earth is the Umpire doing?! That's not how you show out! It's a straight fingure!

Fall of wickets

You're bizarre! It's not about being 'allowed' to do something. The World Series and The Ashes are not worldwide events organised by an international committee like with FIFA and the football world cup...it's a private event organised by co-operation and through tradition between two nations. The Six Nations rugby tournament is another example, or the Euro football competition.

it is

good one you flog

Run outs cost aussies a lot.

ricky ponting disliked this video

No it's not. And what makes you think i'm English, I'm an Indian. Plus football requires fitness levels that cricketers can't even imagine, don't ever compare cricket to football, if someone tried to play football for 8 hours they would probably die.

Why on Earth would Pakistan and India be entitled to join in the Ashes? It's a historic match celebrating the age-old rivallry between Australia and England; it's not the World Cup! Next you'll be demanding that every country should be allowed to play in the American's Baseball 'World Series'.

Peter Hartley???

its not fair harry helped england

at the moment that looks likely

i know right

Daniel Radcliffe 0:28

This was the first series Shane Warne commentated for sky sports, I remember initially hating him. Because why not, hes the man an englishman loves to hate. But as the series went on he showed his professionalism as a commentator and it shows here. When that 10th wicket goes he immediately gives kudos to England. Absolutelyhated seeing england play against him, but theres not doubt how much quality this man has.

yes, he's a great commentator, he's way better than the rest of the ex-Aussie players on channel nine.

Dude the aussies have lost a couple of series over 30 years of dominance...... hahah you englishmen better not start getting too arrogant because you are GONE in the 13-14 series

harry potter confunded all the aussie batsmen.

@aussiumo Very true, the guys you speak of are some of the best of all time, but after living there for a year, I realised that nice beaches and land mass without a huge population density are a poor substitute for the racism and narrow mindedness, (not to mention a deep rooted chip on shoulders regarding the country's beginnings and roots), that appears to be ingrained within their society; ignorance rains supreme and though I had a great time there, I was well pleased to get home!

@DROLL30 how?

Are you kidding me?? Who doesn't know that Billy Bowden is suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, hence his finger being not straight. It is well known as "the crooked finger of doom"...

Bucket hands andrew flintoff! lol

...... So England wins the Ashes and the top comments are about Harry Potter. Great.

LOL funny how Indian and Pakistanis think their eries is better, the ashes were the birth of international cricket

Where have you been for the last decade? You clearly haven't been introduced to Billy Bowden and his rebellious ways......he does not conform to conventional cricketing norms.

lol India v Pakistan is still better and more thrilling than the ashes!!!

@aussiumo Ermmmm, England did at cricket..... two times in a row, plus we whooped them in the last Olmypics..... loving your appreciation for our cousins on the other side of the world, but have you ever been to Oz and tasted their "culture" and "mentality" first hand? It's a little disturbing.......
