The Ashes is back. But the buzz, the heat, the electricity that once made Australia V England the fiercest rivalry in world cricket feels different. As India’s blockbuster showdowns with both England and Australia now dominate global attention, the question emerges: has the Ashes fallen behind? With Bazball wobbling, Australia missing key stars, and both sides struggling to match the drama and intensity India has generated in recent red-ball clashes, this year’s Ashes faces its biggest test. Can England finally win in Australia after 2010, or will this series confirm the shift of cricket’s biggest rivalry away from the traditional giants? Rupha Ramani breaks down the hype, the mind games, the media noise, the banter between Steve Smith and Monty Panesar and why this Ashes desperately needs magic on the field to reclaim its throne.
