The first time England lost to Austraila in I think around 1892 the papers called it the death of English cricket. The bails from the stumps (same sort of thing as the strike box in baseball but its a physical target) were burnt and put into a little urn. Every two years since then the two teams compete for the urn and England up untill this year hadn't won since 1981 I think.
