The 2023 Ashes is almost upon us.

The last few weeks we have seen England try to find a sturdy batting line-up, and a reliable roster of fit and dangerous bowlers. Whether they have pulled it off will become apparent in the coming weeks and months.

Since England's famous 2005 triumph the Ashes have swapped hands more regularly than they had over the previous two decades of struggle for this year's home side, but Australia are the incumbent champions, and the favourites ahead of their visit.

Such is the demand for tickets, that the open ballot was heavily subscribed, for spectators desperate to spend at least a session in the sun watching the world's oldest international cricket tournament.

England suffered defeat in the 2021/22 series Down Under, suffering a 4-0 trouncing. They will be aiming to repeat the feat, if not go one better for the whitewash.

Unfortunately the open ballot has been closed for some time, meaning tickets have been put up for sale and snapped up already.

The alternative options for fans are to get tickets via a hospitality package, and on resale ticketing websites.
