The Cricket Ashes

Create a stunning image of a The Cricket Ashes medal, featuring a circular design with a diameter of 3 inches, crafted from polished gold with intricate detailing. The medal is suspended from a deep maroon ribbon, embellished with subtle silver stripes, elegantly tied in a knot at the top. The front displays an embossed cricket bat and ball, surrounded by laurel leaves, symbolizing victory. The reverse side features engraved text reading "The Ashes Champion" along with the year, framed by a textured border. The color scheme combines rich gold, deep maroon, and touches of silver, evoking a sense of prestige. Illuminate the medal with soft, dramatic lighting against a blurred background of a cricket field at sunset, enhancing the medal's shine and creating an atmosphere of triumph. The perspective should be slightly angled to showcase both the front and the ribbon, emphasizing the craftsmanship and significance of the award.
