The 'Ashes' are the ashes of the first bails used in the first cricket test between England and Australia.
well it was Kevin Peterson but he resigned and then Andrew Strauss took over
it was in 1882 and Australia beat England in cricket the Australian team then burnt the bails (not the stumps or ball) to mark the first ever official game and to this day England and Australia compete for the ashes (that's why the wining team holds up an urn as there trophy)
