England’s thrilling 49-run victory in the fifth and final Ashes 2023 Test marked a perfect culmination to one of England’s most successful bowler Stuart Broad‘s illustrious cricketing career. Broad bid adieu to the sport with a fairy-tale ending by picking the match-winning wicket to wrap up the Australian batting line-up on Monday (July 31) and guiding England to a series-levelling victory (2-2). The legendary pacer celebrated his retirement and savored the memorable moment with partner Mollie King and daughter Annabella.

Broad etched his name in cricketing history with many exceptional performances throughout his career. The 37-year-old stands fourth on the all-time list of test wicket-takers and finds himself in the esteemed company of legends like Muttiah Muralitharan, Shane Warne and his great friend, veteran England pacer James Anderson.

Following his final match in England jersey, an emotional Broad shared his sentiments with Sky Sports. The Nottinghamshire cricketer cherished the moment of taking a wicket on the final delivery of his career during the conversation.

“When you make that decision (to retire), you wonder what your last ball will be, so to take a wicket to win an Ashes Test match is pretty cool,” said Broad.
