The same way India vs. Pakistan is bigger than India vs. England even though beating England is harder. It's about what people care more about, not who's harder to beat. I would guess both English and Australians would care more about beating each other than beating India. Really depends on how you define "bigger".
The reason why Border Gavaskar Trophy is the biggest rivalry in cricket right now is that it is a closely fought contest whether held in India or Australia. The Ashes in England is really great to watch, but it becomes a one-sided series in Australia with the Aussies thrashing England there. That doesn't happen with the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
The name border Gavaskar should change to border tendulkar series,why? As because when you are legend of the game you have some social responsibility too,you have an adulution a lagacy to follow till 18/11/23 Mr Gavaskar deserve respect but from 19/11/23 he lost all respect when he done pan masala advertisement if he is under some debt it will be understable but after earning so much he in his 70's misguiding the youth of India its not a mistake it's a sin so it should be BTT ( BORDER TENDULKAR TROPHY).An example should establish in our society that if you commited sin you have to pay heavily for it,like in Olympics if after win gold if one fail in medical test immediately the medal is taking back.🤫
Wrong, The Ashes is considered by both Australians and English as their biggest cricket event, even people who barely watch cricket in these 2 countries still follow the Ashes because its that big for them playing vs their biggest rival. Not the BGT. Also the person you were replying to is an Aussie.
@@yadhaider807 Maybe bigger just because of marketing and nostalgia. 'At present' ask any cricket expert and neutral people about the quality of cricket being played in Ashes vs BGT.

Not any average cricket in Ashes in Australia and England is to blame here.

It's not about competitiveness or rivalry. It's bigger only for Indians as India won last few series. Most Australians or Brits don't care if India win either. Both aus and eng pretty much use every test series as a warm up for Ashes selection. It's more like a cultural event b/w these two countries for over a century which is equivalent to WC for both. India doesn't even matter here. Not sure why Indians are so desperate to get compared.
Rivalries have changed in last 2 decades. In a world where England and Australia were a fierce competitor in tests, another world had India and Pakistan rivalry which was more important as a cricket fan. Now that India can compete the greatest of the tests, India and Australia have become biggest competitors.
India and Australia have been the cricketing superpowers since the 2000s,they have the best record bilateraly and in major tournaments since than,that's why the cricket World is excited about this series and there's so much hype

BGT has been more consistently competitive since the turn of the century. The Ashes has more history and prestige and England and Aus is a lot more personal. Its the same thing with Ind and Pak. Ind beating Pak is a lot more personal than Aus. I suspect if you ask the casual Indian fan as to whom they would prefer to beat, Pak or Aus in a crunch situation, most people will say Pak. I will say that apart from the 2011-12 series, almost all series since the 03-04 series in Aus have been competitive.

BGT has been the biggest fixture in world cricket in 21st century. Whenever these two teams clash, one of them has always been ranked no 1... also, the two most successful teams at ICC events.. Ask any broadcaster in India or Australia, which clash makes the highest revenue, there's only 1 answer...Steve Waugh called India the final frontier... Steve Smith said way back in 2017 that his biggest cricketing dream is to win a Test series in India. This coming from someone who hasnt won an Ashes in England till date... Cummins has said that a Test series win in India will be "era defining"... Virat and Rohit have already said that they enjoy playing Australia more than any other team... whoever does well in these contests, usually end up having a 10-15 year career... This years BGT will be one of the most highly anticipated Test series of all time... Australia will be aiming to win their first BGT in a decade, India will be looking to avenge the two final defeats of last year.. Both teams will be itching to get their hands on each other already... From what I last heard, the MCG Boxing Day Test tickets of Day 1 have already been sold.. This is cricket's El Clasico..
@@tarunreddy2031Because Australia and England look at Ashes as their biggest cricketing event besides the World Cup. BGT generates more revenue purely because of Indian audience. Hardly anyone in australia cares about it
If BGT was bigger than the Ashes then that would reflect in the attendance figures for the actual matches being played. No test series comes close to the fan attendance that the Ashes generates, then when you add the history and tradition it's a no brainer.
@@wesleymaistry6278 combined viewership digital + grounds BGT numbers are huge relative to Ashes games but i would say majority of those numbers would be skewed towards indian audiences
A lot of india dominating in aus is also conditions,there's not much lateral movement which helps the Indian batsman,and historically indi have had the flattest pitches for fast bowlers this Australian wickets seem like a paradise
Is it even a rivalry when india have won the last 4 times,it's a rivalry when it happens in Australia,and its a rivalry in a one off test,but I see the border gavaskar more as one sided than a rivalry
obviously India has had an upper hand on the last 4 occasions , But to call it "one sided" shows either you didn't watch any of the games or you don't know the meaning of the word one sided
@@TheeldenLord924 when it has happened in india it's been one sided ,in aus it's obviously competitive,but how can people call ashes one sided when aus haven't even won in england for a while and than call the bgt competitive when india have won twice in aus

@@TheeldenLord924 india won both those axar matches by more than 100 runs,if that's the argument than the ashes have also been competitive in aus, because smith has had to bail them out
@@physco4641 it does matter. What that means is that even those who don't watch cricket much in Australia or England will still watch the Ashes because its their biggest cricket event. Similar to how in other countries, casual cricket fans only watch the world cup and nothing else. In other words, Ashes is the biggest test cricket rivalry.
Being an Indian , I have always considered Ashes is more valuable than the world cup. It is the oldest rivalry in the cricketing nation and it is the only rivalry that kept European and specifically England, Irish, Dutch and other neighbouring countries interested in the sport and they consider it as a holy rivalry even more than EPL, Champions league etc because Ashes is more of pride rivalry rather than just dominance.
Its 120 years vs 30 years. So not comparable. But England can't compete in Australia. Ashes away is just good cricket. Ashes in Australia is just thrashing. Same as BGT in India

@@TheeldenLord924 I think the discussion is about consensus. I think the history of The Ashes is so vast that you can't ignore that Aus and Eng have an additional personal edge in wanting to beat the other, even if Ind is a more competitive team against them.
@@nikunjdixit1175 Doesn't matter lmao , Wi have been more competitive here in the last couple of years than England , I would take beating india in aus anyday of the week because it is a lot harder to but also because it will be a sweet revenge
@@TheeldenLord924 I get that. But that's just an individual choice. If you take a consensus of group of Aus fans, I am sure most of them will say The Ashes. Most Indian fans would say the same when choosing between beating Pak and Aus.
Pure sporting competitiveness or history does not automatically translate to a bigger rivalry. The emotional response among the general public requires something more personal, something bitter beyond just cricket. Aus and Eng have that history and so do Ind and Pak. The BGT series can never upstage ashes for a typical Aus fan in that regard.
Well, I feel like Ashes is more like Manchester United vs Liverpool. England is more like Manchester United here basking on the past glory🥲. India is more like Man City, sudden rise to power and there is more money involved. This is my personal opinion, and anyone can disagree.
Yea after that india lost WTC final and WC at home. Moron. A much weaker WI won at GABA recently too, but unlike INDIAN incels they don't jerk on that always.
Border Gavaskar Trophy has become the second most important test rivalry replacing the Frank Worrell Trophy for Australia. An away Ashes series will remain the most important series for both England and Australia given the difficulty of task over the past twenty or thirty years of winning series away from home.
From an Aussie perspective its still the Ashes by an absolute landslide. Yes India is a much bigger challenge to overcome but England are the enemy and nothing will ever compare to the feeling of beating them. Also to be honest it still doesn't feel like theres any chance of us winning in India so away series are a write off before they even begin., everyone just watches the highlights on the news and goes "Oh look, another dust bowl, India opened with two spinners and they took all the wickets cause every 3rd ball doesn't bounce, oh well"
Historically of course its the Ashes, but in terms of quality I believe BGT beats Ashes. Ashes is too one sided in favor of the Aussies. BGT, with India suddenly winning two in two away and under extreme circumstances, and Aussies still not able to find a way to defeat India in India, has suddenly raised the bar and stakes really high I believe.
Ashes may be big on history, but its seldom made for compelling viewing. I've only watched three closely fought Ashes series in the 3 decades that I've followed the game: 2005, 2019 & 2023
Pure Cricket wise Ind vs Aus & Aus vs Saf (few years back) was the best. But Ashes & Ind vs Pak(if it ever happened again) are the two biggest series but its much more than cricket
BGT may be bigger when it comes to competitiveness but when it comes to following, Ashes has and will always have an upper hand as it means a lot to Australian and English Cricket fans as its part of these two countries Sports culture.
Aussies who are saying I am only interested in ashes are the ones who know that in ashes they are going to win more often than not. But with india, In india forget about winning the series even in your dreams. And in your own home Australia, you are always under tremoundous pressure because you know one mistake and you will lose for sure. That's how strong the Indian test cricket team is. You are not going to win without playing your A game.
That's not the topic here. Thing is England and Australia have a long history and that's a part of the reason why Aussies see Ashes as the second most important cricketing event besides the World Cup. It's similar to let's say India vs Pakistan has bigger importance to the Indians than India vs Australia. I mean I would prefer losing to Australia than losing to Pakistan.
Deep actually made a really good point - India touring Austrlia is bigger than England touring there and Australia touring England is bigger than them touring India. Although, it must be said that Steve Waugh did call India the "final frontier".

Ashes. Aus Vs Eng is and will always will be bigger than any team that comes to Aus. It may be a smaller trophy but it means a lot more to win than some trophy that is only like 30 years old. Aus and Ind will never be on that level.
Hyping BGT is a joke. Remember in the 70s and 80s, it was difficult for Aus to beat WI but still the Ashes was more important due to historical reason.

If given a chance of watching India play Pakistan or India play Australia 90% would currently choose Australia coz of competition...even though there's a richer history against Pak.
To me with these things you have to take how you would feel about losing into account as well as how you would feel about winning. I can easily imagine that many Australian supporters would be more excited by beating India at home than winning another Ashes, but also suspect they might be considerably more horrified to lose a home Ashes series than they will be if they lose to India again. As an England supporter I think winning an away series in India would be a bigger achievement than winning in Aus though obviously the latter would also be quite something given how poorly we've performed there the last three times. Cold assessment of what's more difficult or impressive doesn't govern excitement levels though!
Aussie here and you are right on the money. Can take losing to India because they are so good. Winning in India is a massive achievement and we realise it's the hardest ask in test cricket. However, lose to England and the country would go into melt down. Here? That can not happen if people want to keep their jobs. The media over hype the Ashes which doesn't help.
@@dansharp2860I live in Sydney as an Indian immigrant and what I found is that Aussies just loves beating Eng time and time again and losing a home Ashes against Eng is just not acceptable by Aussie fans at all whereas whenever Ind beats Aus,Aussie media and fans take it casually as just another game that Aus lost to India whereas losing to Eng especially in home Ashes is just painful for Aussie fans
Border gavaskar is the new ashes.. ... the retro ashes where eng vs aus go on head to head has lately been like a normal tests instead of tug of war.. where as the border gavaskar trophy is so entertaining
Ashes is a historical rivalry between the Anglos. Casual fans would be more excited for this series. BGT is the present/future. Hardcore fans would, probably, be more excited for this series. I suspect that, in general, most Aussies are still biased towards the Ashes (nothing wrong with that), but commerce favours the BGT.

How about England vs India? I think Autralia long term will become much weaker.This was on the cards when all their greats retired but sort of had a rejuvenation but very much like the West Indies it will fade away.They have smaller player pools and are not as rich as the other 2 and essentially is isolated as a nation. They also will have competition from other sports and moreso from short form cricket. England the colonial masters with a strong economy can sustain its passion for test cricket and India with it's cricket fervency will remain strong. Currently there is no comparison to the Ashes. Asa South African cricket fan I watch the Australian Ashes summer which sometimes begins at 00:30 SAST. Its the nostalgia the historic trends were one is stronger than the other. I make England favourite for the next Ashes down under simply because the Aussie attack is coming to its end. In addition Steve Smith and Usman Khwaja are also expected to retire and there are no obvious replacements. What do you guys think about my take?
For us, the Ashes are obviously bigger, but I do think we don’t make anywhere near as much out of India series (our left-field picks are all with a view to the Ashes, even Bashir who made his debut in India is a tall lad who gets bounce). Looking forward to India next year, will be a true test of ‘Bazball’, we’ve beaten India in a one-off Test, we’ve matched our results away to India and at home to Australia and done well against the rest but we could do with a real statement series win
Kimber understand nuances of india more than indian. He has the knack on seeing things deeper. its just that india competed better than england. That make it more tougher. Australia can win in england but in india? Lot tougher as long ashwin is alive and playing England had fluke win in 2005. Only strauss led team conquered australia in 30 years. England were punching bag for australia Aussies has will to win. But in india they are outskilled by indians. For aussies to beat indian in Australia is easy if they bring Smart fast bowler. Cummins is smart and hazlewood and starc and lyon not that smart. They are ok bowlers. Aussie need one upcoming Tall "Smart" fast bowler.

When was the last time a great Ashes series was played in Australia where the final test in Sydney was the decider? The Ashes is competitive only when it's held in England. In Australia, the hosts win it hands down. England is always under prepared when they go down under and come up with hundreds of excuses for their defeat. In the case of BGT, both countries have hosted very competitive series. So, Ashes is only good in England. BGT is good both in India and Australia.

Both aus and eng pretty much use every test series as a warm up for Ashes selection. It's more like a cultural event b/w these two countries for over a century which is equivalent to WC for both. India doesn't even matter here. Not sure why Indians are so desperate to get compared.
Nobody talking about Pakistan vs Zimbabwe, Nepal ,Usa rivalry
Pak vs ire also 😇
Why are my Indian friends always so derogatory towards their neighbour? Wouldn’t it be better to take the high road and be nice all around ?

Rivalries have changed in last 2 decades. In a world where England and Australia were a fierce competitor in tests, another world had India and Pakistan rivalry which was more important as a cricket fan. Now that India can compete the greatest of the tests, India and Australia have become biggest competitors.
India and Australia have been the cricketing superpowers since the 2000s,they have the best record bilateraly and in major tournaments since than,that's why the cricket World is excited about this series and there's so much hype
The name border Gavaskar should change to border tendulkar series,why? As because when you are legend of the game you have some social responsibility too,you have an adulution a lagacy to follow till 18/11/23 Mr Gavaskar deserve respect but from 19/11/23 he lost all respect when he done pan masala advertisement if he is under some debt it will be understable but after earning so much he in his 70's misguiding the youth of India its not a mistake it's a sin so it should be BTT ( BORDER TENDULKAR TROPHY).An example should establish in our society that if you commited sin you have to pay heavily for it,like in Olympics if after win gold if one fail in medical test immediately the medal is taking back.🤫

This is probably on of the only places left where we get some real cricket analysis and narratives being discussed.
BGT has been more consistently competitive since the turn of the century. The Ashes has more history and prestige and England and Aus is a lot more personal. Its the same thing with Ind and Pak. Ind beating Pak is a lot more personal than Aus. I suspect if you ask the casual Indian fan as to whom they would prefer to beat, Pak or Aus in a crunch situation, most people will say Pak. I will say that apart from the 2011-12 series, almost all series since the 03-04 series in Aus have been competitive.

Based on history : Ashes
Based on current hype and rivalry : Border Gavaskar
BGT has been the biggest fixture in world cricket in 21st century. Whenever these two teams clash, one of them has always been ranked no 1... also, the two most successful teams at ICC events.. Ask any broadcaster in India or Australia, which clash makes the highest revenue, there's only 1 answer...Steve Waugh called India the final frontier... Steve Smith said way back in 2017 that his biggest cricketing dream is to win a Test series in India. This coming from someone who hasnt won an Ashes in England till date... Cummins has said that a Test series win in India will be "era defining"... Virat and Rohit have already said that they enjoy playing Australia more than any other team... whoever does well in these contests, usually end up having a 10-15 year career... This years BGT will be one of the most highly anticipated Test series of all time... Australia will be aiming to win their first BGT in a decade, India will be looking to avenge the two final defeats of last year.. Both teams will be itching to get their hands on each other already... From what I last heard, the MCG Boxing Day Test tickets of Day 1 have already been sold.. This is cricket's El Clasico..

If BGT was bigger than the Ashes then that would reflect in the attendance figures for the actual matches being played. No test series comes close to the fan attendance that the Ashes generates, then when you add the history and tradition it's a no brainer.

No interest in cricket. Your opinion doesn't matter
@@physco4641 it does matter. What that means is that even those who don't watch cricket much in Australia or England will still watch the Ashes because its their biggest cricket event. Similar to how in other countries, casual cricket fans only watch the world cup and nothing else. In other words, Ashes is the biggest test cricket rivalry.
Pakistanis are losing interest coz their team isn't doing so well.
Aussies have lost interest coz their team has done it all.
Being an Indian , I have always considered Ashes is more valuable than the world cup. It is the oldest rivalry in the cricketing nation and it is the only rivalry that kept European and specifically England, Irish, Dutch and other neighbouring countries interested in the sport and they consider it as a holy rivalry even more than EPL, Champions league etc because Ashes is more of pride rivalry rather than just dominance.
Great Show 😊
Its high time we need Aus vs Eng vs Ind tri series in all 3 locations
Its 120 years vs 30 years. So not comparable. But England can't compete in Australia. Ashes away is just good cricket. Ashes in Australia is just thrashing. Same as BGT in India
Ashes is Different
Atleast Australia manage to win a test in India but England can't even do that in Australia.
Based on the ones I've watched live, 2014, 17, 21 bgt and 2013, 19, 23 ashes, all were phenomenal in cricketing quality
You are ding good work folks, the ratio of (View:Like) is impressive.

How? And Why?

@@TheeldenLord924 I get that. But that's just an individual choice. If you take a consensus of group of Aus fans, I am sure most of them will say The Ashes. Most Indian fans would say the same when choosing between beating Pak and Aus.
Pure sporting competitiveness or history does not automatically translate to a bigger rivalry. The emotional response among the general public requires something more personal, something bitter beyond just cricket. Aus and Eng have that history and so do Ind and Pak. The BGT series can never upstage ashes for a typical Aus fan in that regard.
BG Series is financially a goldmine for Cricket Australia.
Well, I feel like Ashes is more like Manchester United vs Liverpool. England is more like Manchester United here basking on the past glory🥲. India is more like Man City, sudden rise to power and there is more money involved.
This is my personal opinion, and anyone can disagree.
No 115 charges though
As football fan History is important and that why Ashes is top riverly.
The your opinion doesn't matter 🤓☝🏻
Apart from Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh, Pakistan vs Afghanistan has also become a heated rivalry in the recent past.
3:30 makes very good sense
Once a man said "come to Gaba" and the rest is history 🌚
Yea after that india lost WTC final and WC at home. Moron. A much weaker WI won at GABA recently too, but unlike INDIAN incels they don't jerk on that always.
The Gabba test made hard core Australian fans cry.
Border Gavaskar Trophy has become the second most important test rivalry replacing the Frank Worrell Trophy for Australia.
An away Ashes series will remain the most important series for both England and Australia given the difficulty of task over the past twenty or thirty years of winning series away from home.
From an Aussie perspective its still the Ashes by an absolute landslide. Yes India is a much bigger challenge to overcome but England are the enemy and nothing will ever compare to the feeling of beating them. Also to be honest it still doesn't feel like theres any chance of us winning in India so away series are a write off before they even begin., everyone just watches the highlights on the news and goes "Oh look, another dust bowl, India opened with two spinners and they took all the wickets cause every 3rd ball doesn't bounce, oh well"
Same reason we indians call ind vs pak huge..while everyone knows how difficult beating pak really is🤣🤣,it all basically depends upon the history
Historically of course its the Ashes, but in terms of quality I believe BGT beats Ashes. Ashes is too one sided in favor of the Aussies. BGT, with India suddenly winning two in two away and under extreme circumstances, and Aussies still not able to find a way to defeat India in India, has suddenly raised the bar and stakes really high I believe.
It is .
Well obviously their will always be history.
Awesome show with Kimber, the host and John Cena
Ashes may be big on history, but its seldom made for compelling viewing. I've only watched three closely fought Ashes series in the 3 decades that I've followed the game: 2005, 2019 & 2023
@2.55 Spot on, By conservative estimate 90 out 100 Aussie would be saying cricket? Don't know mate I watch AFL...
Pure Cricket wise Ind vs Aus & Aus vs Saf (few years back) was the best.
But Ashes & Ind vs Pak(if it ever happened again) are the two biggest series but its much more than cricket
India vs Australia is more than just a game of cricket. Even the events in between to overs are worth watching.
BGT is much competitive and excitement tournament then Ashes
good that the panel did not mind discussing INDvPAK rivalry. They would be forced to change the title of the video.
BGT may be bigger when it comes to competitiveness but when it comes to following, Ashes has and will always have an upper hand as it means a lot to Australian and English Cricket fans as its part of these two countries Sports culture.
Aussies who are saying I am only interested in ashes are the ones who know that in ashes they are going to win more often than not. But with india, In india forget about winning the series even in your dreams. And in your own home Australia, you are always under tremoundous pressure because you know one mistake and you will lose for sure. That's how strong the Indian test cricket team is. You are not going to win without playing your A game.
That's not the topic here.
Thing is England and Australia have a long history and that's a part of the reason why Aussies see Ashes as the second most important cricketing event besides the World Cup.
It's similar to let's say India vs Pakistan has bigger importance to the Indians than India vs Australia.
I mean I would prefer losing to Australia than losing to Pakistan.
Ashes is better brand and marketing - BGT is a better product.
ASHES!
yes, quality of border gavaskar is bigger but as a person living in aus, people care about ashes way more
We need to give every test trophy/series/rivalry a name like Ashes and BGT and use it more often.
Yeah. If you are going to the effort of making trophy like a tournament just think up of a name.
I want to see an Ashes series in India!
Good conversation. Payne thing was Gabba. Be nice if Test cricket was played outside of 3 countries its all over soon. Go the Dees.
Deep actually made a really good point - India touring Austrlia is bigger than England touring there and Australia touring England is bigger than them touring India. Although, it must be said that Steve Waugh did call India the "final frontier".

To me with these things you have to take how you would feel about losing into account as well as how you would feel about winning.
I can easily imagine that many Australian supporters would be more excited by beating India at home than winning another Ashes, but also suspect they might be considerably more horrified to lose a home Ashes series than they will be if they lose to India again.
As an England supporter I think winning an away series in India would be a bigger achievement than winning in Aus though obviously the latter would also be quite something given how poorly we've performed there the last three times. Cold assessment of what's more difficult or impressive doesn't govern excitement levels though!
Aussie here and you are right on the money. Can take losing to India because they are so good. Winning in India is a massive achievement and we realise it's the hardest ask in test cricket. However, lose to England and the country would go into melt down. Here? That can not happen if people want to keep their jobs. The media over hype the Ashes which doesn't help.
@@dansharp2860I live in Sydney as an Indian immigrant and what I found is that Aussies just loves beating Eng time and time again and losing a home Ashes against Eng is just not acceptable by Aussie fans at all whereas whenever Ind beats Aus,Aussie media and fans take it casually as just another game that Aus lost to India whereas losing to Eng especially in home Ashes is just painful for Aussie fans
Casual cricket fan from Bangladesh. Just heard of Border Gavaskar trophy. Knew of Ashes since the time I started watching cricket.
Border gavaskar is the new ashes.. ... the retro ashes where eng vs aus go on head to head has lately been like a normal tests instead of tug of war.. where as the border gavaskar trophy is so entertaining
If you say so buddy.
Ashes is a historical rivalry between the Anglos. Casual fans would be more excited for this series.
BGT is the present/future. Hardcore fans would, probably, be more excited for this series.
I suspect that, in general, most Aussies are still biased towards the Ashes (nothing wrong with that), but commerce favours the BGT.

Ashes is bigger than bgt hands down but currently context wise bgt is bigger
Lets not hype the BGT so much, and our team goes there and gets crushed like there was no competition.
Ashes in England, BGT in Australia. But Ashes is still bigger in my opinion.
How about England vs India? I think Autralia long term will become much weaker.This was on the cards when all their greats retired but sort of had a rejuvenation but very much like the West Indies it will fade away.They have smaller player pools and are not as rich as the other 2 and essentially is isolated as a nation. They also will have competition from other sports and moreso from short form cricket. England the colonial masters with a strong economy can sustain its passion for test cricket and India with it's cricket fervency will remain strong.
Currently there is no comparison to the Ashes. Asa South African cricket fan I watch the Australian Ashes summer which sometimes begins at 00:30 SAST. Its the nostalgia the historic trends were one is stronger than the other. I make England favourite for the next Ashes down under simply because the Aussie attack is coming to its end. In addition Steve Smith and Usman Khwaja are also expected to retire and there are no obvious replacements. What do you guys think about my take?
You guys could have chosen a better guest than Deep Dasgupta.. he is so insignificant!!
In Australia, BGT is clear. But Ashes in England is still the best series going
Border gavaskar trophy started in 1996
For us, the Ashes are obviously bigger, but I do think we don’t make anywhere near as much out of India series (our left-field picks are all with a view to the Ashes, even Bashir who made his debut in India is a tall lad who gets bounce). Looking forward to India next year, will be a true test of ‘Bazball’, we’ve beaten India in a one-off Test, we’ve matched our results away to India and at home to Australia and done well against the rest but we could do with a real statement series win

When was the last time a great Ashes series was played in Australia where the final test in Sydney was the decider? The Ashes is competitive only when it's held in England. In Australia, the hosts win it hands down. England is always under prepared when they go down under and come up with hundreds of excuses for their defeat. In the case of BGT, both countries have hosted very competitive series. So, Ashes is only good in England. BGT is good both in India and Australia.
