Ahead of the 2025 series, three time England Ashes winner Steven Finn reveals what it's really like to be an elite international cricketer playing against the old enemy: Australia
Few cricketers understand the rollercoaster of emotions that come with being part of an Ashes series quite like Steven Finn. Whilst he made over 120 appearances for his country, taking over 250 wickets, it was his battles with Australia that defined his career.

Aged just 21, he played a key role in England's historic 2010 Ashes win over their fiercest rivals - their first victory down under since the 80s - and went on to be part of three Ashes winning sides. But there was a darker side to his career.

In 2014, Finn was sent home from Australia during the calamitous 5-0 series defeat after he lost his confidence and his bowling action fell apart. He was adamant this wouldn't be the end of his England career though; after fighting to overcome his demons and regain his place in the side, he played a key role as England regained the Urn in 2015.

With the help of the candid diaries he kept at the time, The Ashes Files is a raw and eye-opening look at life as an elite international cricketer. It's a story of elation and pain, hitting rock bottom and battling back, and what it's really like to go to war with England's oldest foe.

Steven Finn is a former cricketer who played for England over 100 times between 2010 and 2017, taking over 250 wickets. He was part of three Ashes winning sides, including the historic series win in Australia in 2010. He became a commentator for BBC's Test Match Special in 2019, and retired from cricket in 2023 following long battles with injury.
