Notes

  • In 1890, only two Tests were played. A third Test was abandoned due to bad weather without play ever starting.
  • For the 1970–71 Ashes series, the two sides ended up playing seven Tests - six were originally scheduled, but an extra Test was added to compensate for the abandoned third Test.
