It was, quite simply, the most enthralling Test match in living memory. Chasing 282 in the final innings at Edgbaston, Australia slipped to 220-9, and it looked for all the world like England would level the series. However an extraordinary and typically gutsy Australian rearguard from Brett Lee and Michael Kasprowicz, brought the Aussies to within 3 runs of victory. Then Steve Harmison turned on his mark to bowl to Kasprowicz, and the rest is history.

I was driving my girlfriends car at the time when that final wicket fell. The celebrations almost caused a crash and she said to me "Why are you getting so excited, it's only cricket." It was at this point I knew breaking up was inevitable.

@@adamwest1222 it was a full toss outside the off stump that really should of been put away, luckily for England it was hit straight to the fielder.
As an Australian, this doesn’t get any less painful each time you watch it. You know the outcome, you know exactly whats gonna happen. But still every time you come back and watch you get tempted into thinking we’re gonna win it this time.
It is definitely the greatest test match ever.
You should be proud.
Australia had a brilliant team and played in such a magnificent series
@@randyborstol2491yeah I agree, thank you for Participating with us Australia, one for the ages
My parents made me go birdwatching with them on that final day. For as long as we all will live, I will never, ever forgive them for it.

How boring!

Give my respects to you mum
Great
From 137/7 to 175/8 to finally reaching to 279 and falling short of just by 2 runs. This Australian team was absolutely brutal. Have never seen a team as savage as this one. If there batsmen scored 130 they’d make sure to get you out well below that. You could never rest assured against this team unless you took that last 10th wicket or hit that last winning run.
To be fair they failed to chase 130 a few times themselves, but yeah they never give up. Australia can win from anywhere, look at Adelaide 2006 and Hobart 1999, both from equal world record Test winning streaks. Don't forget Melbourne 1982 for heartbreak. Can also lose from anywhere as Headingley 1981 and Eden Gardens 2001. Even the mighty West Indies never got close to winning 16 in a row; hard to believe Australia actually did it twice and India stopped them both times.
This Australian team under Ponting has been the best cricket side in my lifetime. The most dominant side in the history maybe
@@janishhasheer5548 yes they ticked every box

And then some Americans say baseball is better than cricket.
Crickets kind of an imperial sport so you can’t expect them to like it. That being said, baseball isn’t better.
@6a Plus It doesn't help that each team plays 162 games in a season too. The enjoyment you get from a win is minimal.
@@alsy23 no it isn't. That's just some made up bollocks you tell yourself.
As an Englishman who's favourite sport (play and watch) is baseball but who also loves cricket. I just have to say, why does there have to be such competition? Why can't both be good? Why can't people enjoy both? Or one? Or neither? It doesnt matter. You like cricket more? And hate baseball? Great, that's amaizng for you, but that doesn't mean cricket is a better sport. Equally just because people like baseball more doesn't mean it's any better or worse. Why does everything have to be a competition? It's pretty pathetic tbh
All Americans says cause it's their game
Even English were struggling to win at home. Hats off to the Aussies. They literally Never gave up.
But lost.

The best ashes series . This match intensified me to watch ashes forever. Andrew Flintoff . Wonderful all rounder 💪🏻
Ditto
It was his time wasn't it
This same scenario happend today but fate changed. The greatest rivalry of all time indeed 🔥long line the ashes
Not a rivalry when aus owns england
I wasn't even watching when the final wicket fell, I couldn't watch. My tv was on in my room and i was pacing the floor, desporate for an English roar. The pressure was too much, the tension too much, everything hinged on this. And then an explosive delivery flicked into the hands of Jones, the roar went up, OUT!!! I danced and celebrated like my country had just won the world cup, but they had just won a test match. The most incredible test match. England won by the slenderest of margins, we won the Ashes that series, and I'll never forget it. Forget football, cricket is where there is tension.
This beats winning a World Cup. And beats football any day.
Are you talking about which roar
I was imagining myself in your position.
Shut up you lucky pom
@@alexleman3256 shut up you cheating convict
Best Ashes EVER PERIOD.
That ball to Clarke ... Harmisson you beauty !!
Now a days it just a facade
@Windex Oh Yeah Yeah Clearly you know nothing about cricket.
Harmission break
English crowds are the best!! They got great appreciation for different types of shots.
Oh the Ashes of 2005, this series was one of the most intense sporting series i have ever watched, virtually unbeatable Australian team against in form England at home and the buildup and then the level of matches ❤️
Got the dvd of this whole series in a newspaper for free! Fell in love with the sport forever after!
James Eh that’s cricket
This is why test cricket should live! Players enduring the test of time, a mind game and a mental battle for both the captains and lots of emotions and dramas running around which you can't really expect in one dayers!
100 percent agreed. No match to test cricket.
I agree.5 day matches are fantastic,but not very many people go anymore,certainly not at county matches.ive been lancashire many times and its such a shame to see a famous old ground with just a smattering of fans.BWFC.

Just have a look at the way English crowd cheered both the teams as they were neutral.
This gave me goosebumps.
Bring 50 tied t20 matches but the thrill of this test match will still be unmatched.
u r just over excited
There were fans of both teams in the crowd lol, not many neutrals
Naaaaahhh.. DK's last ball six was equally good
No the t20 world cup final between India vs Pakistan had the same feel..
SYED JAFFER IMAM no neutrals here in England mate 😂😂
I almost died that morning. I was only 23 but my heart was doing all kinds of crazy stuff. Pure emotion. I was a wreck on the floor by the end. Dripping in sweat. Unreal sport
18 years later and still one of the best test matches and series of all time 👍👍👍
Aussie's tailenders are a tough nut to crack. Their resistance against Eng was great. One of the best series in the post millenium..
One of the best? It was the best
You only knew you had beaten this Aussie side when they were all back in the pavilion!
My hearts pounding after watching that and I already knew the result 😂
Not enough likes for this comment.
True
Same! At 11:55 I thought that was 4 runs (even though I knew the final score) haha. I was like wtf Aussies won?!
Flintoff is a heck of a player. He is really something to watch and enjoy.
What a wonderful this match was, I was watching live at that time. Beating Australia was most difficult. When England won the match, I became so happy 😊
This is the most fantastic test match i have ever seen in my life...
Yusuf Ali I hope you watched the headingley match this summer
Don't forget the Ump's Brown envelope.
Flintoff was world class. I was big fan of how He came up every time and made it count. Best cricketer of that decade for England I think.
Injury prone all the time , wasted half of his career in fighting the injury !!
He looked better than he really was, have a look at his averages, bowling average is probably higher than batting average. Incredible on his day though that's what everyone remembers :/ a bit like Stokes being hugely overrated for the rare match-winning performances. Inconsistent.

Gilchrist was playing at no. 7 godddd imagine the kind of batting line up Australian team had at that time.......... Claps for England team performance (Indian).
Naimath Khan because he is a wicket keeper so he can't bat top order……because wiket keepers always tired so team management choosing them in low order....u can check all wicket keeper bat low order number 7 or 6
i am vineeth but he did open as well with astonishing average and strike rate.
But what I was trying to say was. Inspite of being destructive batsmen he was playing at no. 7 so imagine the other 6 and the batting line up of aussies had. No wonder y aussies were 3 time wc champions continuously..
i am vineeth What will u say about Rahul Dravid?
Gilly was a a fantastic batsman no doubt...but u always need something extra to bat up the order in test..
Nd sorry if offended...
Shrey Tripathi rahul dravid harldy kept in test crickets. India always went for another wicket keeper in tests.
They had so many good batsmen who weren't even in the team too like Law, Lehman, Symonds, Hussey
the first time i ever sat and watched cricket i was on holiday with my dad and he wanted to watch it was 2005 when England won the ashes.. ive been watching ever since..enthralling
I'm guessing that was the most excited and happy you have ever seen your dad am I right? Test match cricket does strange things to grown men, especially when it comes to the Ashes, they will find a way to tune in no matter what country they are in, no matter what time it is, no matter what.
I don't know how many times I have seen this video. But I know, I have cried every time.
What a champion Andrew Flintoff was! Amazing cricketer.

so nice
welcome to the gang
Ben Stokes was hammered 4 consecutive 6s in his last over of 20-20 World Cup final and that costed England the World Cup.
Now he won World cup for England and an an impossible Ashes test.
Truely inspiring
@eating sugar no papa actually technically though... no he didn't and no he wasn't
These things are part of the game. Main thing is he took his team from disaster to victory. True player.
eating sugar no papa funnily enough yes I did, I watched both. That is why I saw England lift the trophy after they won the World Cup due to hitting more boundaries than New Zealand after scores were tied. I also watched Stokes be given not out by umpire Wilson, admittedly the wrong call, and therefore went on to score the winning run. If Mr Paine hadn’t wasted his review on a clearly not out call then Australia would’ve won. Perhaps watching stokes pulverise his sides bowling attack and knock them all around the park got to the skipper
Those sixes were not Ben stokes's fault...When the west indians are mad like they were in that final then no one can get in their way.....It could have happened to anyone that day......
eating sugar no papa...You are talking shit....Grow up and start using a Toilet paper instead of a SAND PAPER.....that will make you feel better...
History repeated.
But different result.
Aussies chase 281 and win by 2 wickets.
2005 it was 282.
2023 it is 281.
Both matches great to watch.
Good luck sir
Watching decades later : it still sends shivers down my spine.
The best test match ever
Back when cricket was just pure cricket. Nothing else❤ Long gone days😢
Here after the crushing defeat of england in the ashes '19 , Edgbaston...
The redemption of steve smith!!!!
you gotta feel the aussies deserved to win, 175-8 and to make another 104/107 with only 2 wickets on a final day of a test is unheard of ESPECIALLY in those days and insane.
Yes
not to mention kasprovich didn't hit it. If they had DRS Australian won.
@@samward1317 Kasprowicz did hit it, the question was whether his hand was on the bat handle or not. However Warne and Kasprowicz should've both been out LBW earlier on so you win some lose some.
I can watch this match 100 times Without getting bored
What a series and what a summer. I had the privilege of being in England for it. The entire office was swept up in it, and the banter was top shelf.
I can recall watching the end of this game with my flatmates like it was yesterday. A gutsy chase, Flintoff’s iconic sporting gesture, and the first of a series of epic test matches.
This was sport doing what sport does at its best.. bringing people together and creating lifelong memories.
That was the greatest Ashes series of all time.... Still remember that magical over of Flintoff against Ponting
Incredible... That was the time when the Ashes cricket was at it's peak because both teams were much strong...
Australia was unbeatable at home. England barely won the Ashes that year.

It's scary😱
I'm here to refresh the Ashes memory once again after recently concluded Border Gavaskar 2021 where India beat Aussies 2-1 with 4-5 youngsters under one of the skillful underrated captain Ajinkya Rahane.
What a fight.... No team ever, ever had that fighting spirit like the aussies... The Lees and the Warnes... Legends ... It's sad that they are nowhere close to it now, especially in the ongoing series vs India

Everytime i watch this epic match and everytime i get goosebumps..this has it all..and classic commentary adds more spice to it❤❤
I saw this match live..I know the result before hand...yet my stomach was still knotted with suspense ...that's what a great test match should be
still remember this like it was yesterday. what an epic test match!.
I was at Edgbaston on the final day of this test with my brother. Don't remember much after the final wicket, except waking up the next day with top of my head burned from falling alseep under a patio heater outside a pub in Leicester!
I was there, too. Didn't think I would see much entertainment and that we'd comfortably bowl them out. I was hugging complete strangers when the final wicket went. Ended up going an all dayer in Brum city centre after. Brilliant.
What a match it was, my love for ASHES is getting bigger day by day! ❤
I remember watching this. The way the English fans cheered and clapped when Australia scored runs was just amazing

Lol frome kerala

Corey Okeeffe Aussies are cheats
I remember this ashes series: it was quite simply the best test cricket I'd ever watched. Looking back the thing that strikes me the most is the sheer joy in this group of players, working hard for each other, but enjoying themselves. Is this why England have gone off the rails in recent years in test cricket? They've lost that joie de vivre, that sheer exuberance and belief that they can give the best teams in the world a real run for their money. I hope England can take a step back and recapture that sheer joy again. Free spirits like Flintoff and Pietersen, combined with the other wonderful players in this great team. Sometimes you just have to let talent play without coaching that talent out of them. The current England side have some great potential, just like this team did back in 2005. Perhaps the trick is to let it blossom rather than stifle it.
This is why test matches are fab. Regardless who wins, it was twists and turns to the end.
This is the flintoff ashes
Yes
The real test of class, skill and temperament.
The matches at Edgbaston are always suspense thriller.😮😮😲😲
What a match. A game full of turns and twist loved the test match❤❤
