England won an enthralling fifth Ashes Test on the final evening of a gripping summer to square up the series.

Australia retained the urn when rain washed out the weekend’s play in Manchester earlier in July, leaving the tourists 2-1 up with one Test match to play.

But it was the retiring Stuart Broad who stole the headlines on the final day as he bowed out with the final two Australian wickets to seal victory and ensure the spoils were shared after two months of cricketing theatre.

Below, we run through the leading scorers from one of the all-time great Ashes series.
