Ashes cricket 2023: Australia v England player ratings from fifth Test and the entire epic series

After a gruelling six-week series, Australia and England finished all square – with heroes and villains littered throughout. Fifth Test ratings, plus every player involved in the 2023 Ashes rated inside.

After an extraordinary six-and-a-half weeks, the Ashes are done – shared between England and Australia in a fitting result between two teams that could barely be split on any given day.

Even on the final day, it appeared each result was possible as Steve Smith and Travis Head built on the great work of Australian openers David Warner and Usman Khawaja.

And then England prevailed on the back of an inspired bowling performance, led by Chris Woakes.

Cricket writers Daniel Cherny and Ben Horne run the rule over the stars and strugglers from an epic series – and give their final verdicts on every player involved in both the fifth Test and the series as a whole.

Did they get it right?
