The Ashes 2023: 'Stuart Broad gives us the feels one last time'
The Oval is a place for goodbyes. Andrew Flintoff's run-out of Ricky Ponting. Courtney Walsh and Curtly Ambrose arm in arm. Donald Bradman's duck.
By this point, Broad had already been given a guard of honour by the Australians and swiped what turned out to be his final ball as a Test batter for six. The moment Moeen answered Ben Stokes' SOS to come out of retirement and replace the injured Jack Leach, he set himself on the path to a heroic performance.
His sidekick was Todd Murphy, a man who wouldn't have been playing had it not been for an injury to Nathan Lyon. The villain and the replacement chipped away, a ninth-wicket partnership to evoke memories of Australia's win in the first Test at Edgbaston.
