Australia played England in the first-ever Test in 1877, and the Ashes were born five years later after Australia’s surprise win at The Oval. Legendary players like Donald Bradman, Shane Warne, and Ricky Ponting have shaped the game’s history. Australia has had multiple golden eras, including the “Invincibles” of 1948. The team dominated Test cricket in the 2000s, twice winning 16 consecutive matches. Australia also leads in ODI cricket, with six World Cup titles, most recently in 2023 under Pat Cummins’ leadership. Their cricket legacy continues to thrive across formats.
