3. Stuart Broad

Stuart Broad

From 2009 to 2023, the pacer was irreplaceable in the England squad. The interesting fact is that Broad is the only bowler from England who is on this list of 'Top 5,' as the other 4 bowlers represented the Australia national team. Broad, who could swing the ball in both ways, bagged 153 wickets during 40 Ashes matches. In 8 innings, the bowler had picked up 5-fers, and on 6 occasions, he achieved 4-wicket tallies. In 2015, during the match at Trent Bridge, the seamer bagged 8 for fifteen.
