The 2010–11 Ashes series was played in Australia. Five Tests were played from 25 November 2010 to 7 January 2011. England won the series 3–1 and retained the Ashes, having won the previous series in 2009 by two Tests to one.

England were led by Andrew Strauss as they won an Ashes series in Australia for the first time since 1986/87 when Mike Gatting's touring team defended the Ashes. Ricky Ponting, the Australian skipper, created unwanted history as he became the first ever captain to lose 3 Ashes series (in 2005, 2009 and 2010/11).
