The Ashes has arrived and there will be plenty of Test cricket drama to sink our teeth into over this summer.

England face Australia for the first time since they were on the wrong side of a 4-0 demolition job Down Under in 2021/22, and will be determined to exorcise those demons on home soil.

Fans across the nation, who have tasted victory in just one of the last five series’ since 2013, will also be desperate to roll in from work to the sights and sounds of English success.

Of course, the nature of Test cricket is that there is a lot of it. However, keeping up to date with all the major moments will be an achievable task in 2023 thanks to extensive highlights across subscription and free-to-air TV platforms.

RadioTimes.com brings you all the details for keeping track of The Ashes highlights across the series.
