England bowler Stuart Broad turned in a hero’s performance in his last match for England, levelling the 2023 Ashes series with Australia.
Broad hit his final ball in Test cricket for six, took wickets on the final evening and four in the match.
Broad took 604 wickets in 167 Tests and is second only to James Anderson (704) among England’s all-time leading wicket takers in the format.
He took 153 of those wickets against Australia – the most by any player in Test history. The seamer also boasts a strong record at the WTC final venue Lord’s, taking 113 wickets in 28 Tests there.
