- 2002/03 in Australia: Australia won 4-1
- 2005 in England: England won 2-1
- 2006/07 in Australia: Australia won 5-0
- 2009 in England: England won 2-1
- 2010/11* in Australia: England won 3-1
*The 2010–11 Ashes series is the only one in which a team has won three Tests by innings margins and it was the first time England had scored 500 or more four times in a single series.
- England and Australia have now won 17 Ashes series
- Phillip Hughes and Ashton Agar scored 163 Runs in the first test match, the highest 10th-wicket partnership of all time in Tests
6)Ashton Agar becomes the 9th player in Test history to finish as the highest scorer in an innings when batting at number 11, and only the second to do so on his debut following Jayantha Amerasinghe's 34 not out from a Sri Lanka first-innings total of 215 against NZ in Kandy in 1984
- This was the 3rd consecutive Ashes series win for England at home
- The last time England won three consecutive series at home was between 1977 and 1985. England won the series 3-0 in 1977, 3-1 in 1981, and 3-1 in 1985
Highlights of the 5th Test Match at Kennington Oval Aug 21-25,2013
- A total of 447 runs were scored on the 5thday(Aug 25,2013) of the 5th Test Match at the kennington Oval which is the most scored in the fifth day ever in an Ashes Test
- Kevin Pietersen's half-century off 36 balls in England's fourth-innings chase was the fastest fifty by an England batsman in the Ashes( Matt Prior, who held this record previously with a 37-ball half-century at Lord's in 2009)
- Brad Haddin's catch off Ryan Harris to dismiss Joe Root* was his 29th of this series. With that catch he broke Rod Marsh's record for the highest number of catches taken by a wicketkeeper in a Test series and also the highest number of dismissals collected by a wicketkeeper in a Test series
