Once A Punjab Kings Player, Why Stuart Broad Never Played A Single IPL Game | Cricket News

[ad_1] File photo of Stuart Broad.© AFPStuart Broad -- one of the greatest England pacers ever -- is set to retire with the conclusion of the fifth and final Ashes Test against Australia. The right-arm pacer has over 840 international wickets to his name. He last played a white-ball match for England in 2016 but has been a regular in Test cricket. His seriousness about the longest format of the game could be observed from the fact that Broad has over 600 Test wickets to his credit. He is only behind James Anderson on the list of leading England wicket takers in Test cricket.It is interesting to note that Broad never played any Indian Premier League match despite being part of the tournament. A few fans know that he was also a part of Kings XI Punjab, now Punjab Kings, in IPL. The Punjab ...

England vs Australia, 3rd Ashes Test, Day 3: Stuart Broad, Chris Woakes Help England Bounce Back On Rain-Hit Day | Cricket News

[ad_1] Chris Woakes led the way with the ball before England openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett held firm to give England the upper hand in a must-win third Ashes Test for the hosts against Australia at Headingley on Saturday. Woakes, playing his first Test since March last year, took 3-68 as Australia were dismissed for 224 in their second innings on a rain-marred third day. That left England, who trail 2-0 in the five-match series, needing 251 to win.England had more than two days to get the runs on a ground where there have only been five previous successful chases in excess of 250 to win a Test -- including their own 362-9 in a dramatic one-wicket win over Australia four years ago built on current captain Ben Stokes's stunning 135 not out.They were 27-0 off just five overs at Saturd...

England vs Australia, 1st Ashes Test, Day 4: Usman Khawaja Keeps Australia In Hunt Despite Stuart Broad’s Twin Strikes | Cricket News

[ad_1] England's Stuart Broad took two late wickets to pile pressure on Australia as the opening Ashes Test at Edgbaston headed for a dramatic finish. Australia were making steady progress at 78-1 in pursuit of a victory target of 281 when veteran paceman Broad removed both Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith -- the world's two top-ranked Test batsmen -- to leave the Ashes holders 89-3. At stumps on Monday, the World Test champions were 107-3, still needing a further 174 runs to win on Tuesday's final day.Usman Khawaja, who ended his decade-long wait for an Ashes hundred in England with 141 in Australia's first-innings 386, was 34 not out.And that meant the left-handed opener was set to become only the second Australian, after Kim Hughes against England at Lord's in 1980, to bat on all fi...

NZ vs Eng, 1st Test, Day 3: Stuart Broad Fires England To Verge Of Win Over New Zealand | Cricket News

[ad_1] Stuart Broad razed New Zealand's top order with a destructive opening spell on Saturday to put England on the verge of winning the first Test at Mount Maunganui. Broad claimed four wickets under lights -- all clean bowled -- to reduce the Black Caps' second innings to 63-5 at stumps on day three, with hopes of reaching their winning target of 394 all but extinguished. England have two full days to claim the remaining five wickets at the Bay Oval and go one-up in the two-match series -- completing a 10th win in their last 11 Tests in the process.In a match largely dominated by aggressive batting, Broad got the pink ball to zip sideways to devastating effect, removing arguably New Zealand's four best batsmen to take 4-21 off 10 unrelenting overs.Openers Devon Conway (2) and Tom Lath...
