The 2025–26 Ashes series, branded as NRMA Insurance Men's Ashes Series for sponsorship purposes, was the 74th edition of the Ashes, a series of Test cricket matches played between Australia and England. The five-Test series was played in Australia between 21 November 2025 and 8 January 2026. The series formed part of the 2025–2027 ICC World Test Championship. Prior to the series, Australia held the Ashes, having won the 2021–22 series and drawn in 2023. Australia won the first three Tests, to take an unassailable 3–0 lead in the series and consequently retained the Ashes. England won the Fourth Test in Melbourne by 4 wickets, ending an 18-match (14-year) winless streak in Australia in Ashes Tests and preventing a whitewash. In the Fifth Test, Australia won by 5 wickets and thus ended the series with a 4 – 1 series result.
