Congratulations to England's cricketers on regaining the most underwhelming trophy in world sport -- The Ashes.18 years after their last series win, England finally get to lift something that looks more like a battered wooden eggcup than the prize for two months of effort.
Now the Kolanka Cup for polo, on the other hand, that's a real trophy.
Standing six feet tall, it can hold four and a half gallons of champagne.
Beats a poxy thimble full of ashes any day of the week.

I've not seen the Kolanka Cup, but for me the best trophy is the NHL's Stanley Cup - not only does it look pretty fine, the winning team players each get to spend a day with it, doing with it as they see fit. TV vignettes about it have shown players drinking champagne from it, making jelly in it, taking it on the Waltzers at a fairground, and bathing a baby in it. What other trophy can the winners do all that with?!
