ENGLAND and Australia are going at it once again to secure Ashes glory – but there could be a dilemma.

Ben Stokes’ side are closing in on an epic fifth-day win after what was a shaky start to the series.

This would be the perfect send-off for legendary cricketer Stuart Broad who has revealed that he will be retiring from the sport.

But victory for England means that the gripping Ashes series would end in a draw.

And fans want to know who the Urn goes to if the two sides cannot be separated.

Who wins the Ashes if the series is drawn?

Should the overall 2023 Ashes series end in a draw, then the previous winners retain the trophy.

And in this scenario, the Ashes urn would return to Australia as they won it the last time out.

This would make the Aussies the holders a staggering FOUR times in a row.

Has the Ashes series ever ended in a draw?

There has been a total of six draws during the Ashes since it first began in 1877.

And on five of those occasions, Australia has retained the urn due to being holders going into the series.

England has retained the Ashes after a drawn series once.

Why is Stuart Broad retiring?

The 37-year-old shocked viewers by announcing the move on Sky Sports at the end of the third day at the Oval.

Broad revealed he only made the call on Friday evening before informing Ben Stokes and old pal and bowling partner Jimmy Anderson of his decision.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Broad said: “Yeah, tomorrow or Monday will be my last game of Cricket.

“It’s been a wonderful ride and a huge privilege to wear the Nottinghamshire and England badge as much as I have.

“I’m loving Cricket as much as I ever have, it’s been such a wonderful series to be a part of and I’ve always wanted to finish at the top.”
