BBC Sport readers have voted Stuart Broad as their Test player of the summer.
Broad was the runaway winner with 64% of the vote, ahead of second-placed Ben Stokes (11%) and Jos Buttler (9%) in third.
It has been a summer to remember for Broad who bounced back from being left out of the first Test against West Indies to take his 500th Test wicket in the very next match.
Since then, he has taken a staggering 29 wickets at an average of 13.41.
His batting has also been crucial in England’s series wins over West Indies and Pakistan, with Broad contributing 177 runs at an average of 35.40.
“Stuart has been exceptional,” said England captain Michael Vaughan. “When you think he missed that first Test match and gave an interview saying he was angry and disappointed at the selectors, he had the skill and mindset to deliver once he got his place back.”
