The Ashes is one of the oldest and most coveted trophies in the world. This Commonwealth nations rivalry sometimes even goes beyond the game of cricket, with tussles ranging from verbal barrages to the sometimes mild shoulder pushing.

Michael Clarke has always been considered the heir to Ricky Ponting as they shared similar aggressive streaks and batting techniques. And Stuart Broad always had Clarke's number, especially with his searing short-pitched balls.

In the 2013 Ashes, Broad dismissed Clarke 5 times. This was the first time someone had dismissed an Australian batsman so many times in a single series.

The numbers also reinforce the fact that Clarke had a hard time with Broad as his average against the Englishman is half as much as his overall average in Tests.
