Star performers of Ashes 2023

The much-anticipated Ashes 2023 series finally came to an end on Monday (July 31), with England winning the fifth and final Test to draw the series (2-2). It is worth mentioning that the fourth match of the Ashes 2023 was called off due to rain and ended in a tie.

Despite lagging behind in the leg, the fifth Test saw England making a strong comeback on the last day and dismantling the well-set Aussie team to derail the visitor’s quest of pulling off a record run chase at The Oval ground. The exceptional bowling from Chris Woakes (4/50) played a major role in England’s sensational victory, as his phenomenal spell helped the home team bundle out the arch-rivals for 334 runs. Moeen Ali also chipped in with three crucial wickets, leading England to a 49-run win over Australia.

England’s victory also marked a perfect end to retiring pacer Stuart Broad‘s and Moeen‘s careers, who bid adieu to the game on a high note. Although Australia missed the opportunity of sealing the Ashes series in England, they still retained the urn being the previous winners.

Overall the series turned out to be a thrilling affair for the fans as they found themselves sitting on the edge of their seats throughout the tournament, witnessing top-class performances from both sides. On that note, let’s have a look at the star performers from Ashes 2023.
