Australia They have won 31 out of 65 series and England 29! Terrible. There has also been 5 draws.
we won the last time it was played so we would have 'retained' the ashes, not techincally 'won' them. obviously we did now win them.
No he won in neither! Until last month, the last time England had won the Ashes in Australia was 1986/87, and we didn't win them again until 2005. Michael Atherton's last Ashes series was in England in 2001, where Australia won the series 4-1.

1986-87 was the last time England beat Australia in an Ashes series. The margin was 3-1 in the five test series However, England were the holders of the Ashes before that series, and therefore retained the Ashes, rather than won them. The last time England actually won the Ashes was in England in 1985 - again a 3-1 series victory
