(Redirected from English cricket team in Australia in 1936-37)
The England cricket team toured Australia in the 1936–37 season to play a five-match Test series against Australia for The Ashes. The tour was organised by the Marylebone Cricket Club and matches outside the Tests were played under the MCC name.
Australia won the series 3–2, having been 2–0 down, and therefore retained The Ashes.
