England lost the fifth and final Test match in Hobart to lose the Ashes 2021-22 series by a 146 run margin. Chasing 271 to win, England openers Zak Crawley and Rory Burns added 68 for the first wicket. Meanwhile, in another batting collapse, England lost their last 10 wickets for 56 runs with the team getting all out for a mere 124. Pat Cummins, Scott Boland and Cameron Green picked three wickets each.

Thus yet another Ashes series comes to an end with the Aussies winning the series and regaining the Urn in the process. It might be the last Ashes for James Anderson who is inching close to 40. Stuart Broad ageing 35, might return for a couple more with the Ashes now being held at a 2-year interval.

In this article, we will take a look at five England bowlers with the most wickets in Ashes cricket.
