Glenn McGrath all praise for Stuart Broad – Cricket News Update
Legendary Australian fast bowler, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SCJ-Broad-c2465, saying that the youngster has the ability to become a world-class pacer if he is able to maintain his level of fitness.
Son of former English cricketer http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Brian-Christopher-Broad-c48475, Stuart came through the ranks of junior cricket in the country and exploded in mainstream international cricket in 2006, during a limited overs series against Pakistan.
The lanky fast bowler made his debut last year. Since then he has been a permenant member of the English Test squad, driving it to success. Not only his bowling skills, but his batting has also improved over the years bringing him to the level of an all-rounder
- as being considered by most cricket analysts.
McGrath, who is considered among the greatest fast bowlers of all times, believes that Broad can reach the mark too, since he has all the attributes required. The legendary fast bowler feels that the best thing about Broad is his aggressive attitude.
He said, "Stuart Broad's got the ability to become a great fast bowler for England. He's aggressive, he's quick, he hits the pitch hard and he gets good players out. I've always got a lot of time for tall lanky bowlers like me - and Stuart reminds me of
myself."
Broad is currently with the English team which is touring the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/United-Arab-Emirates-c3033, where they will take on Pakistan in a three-match Test series, starting tomorrow at Dubai. Being the number one ranked Test team of the world, England is expected to give
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 a tough time.
Although McGrath praised the entire fast bowling squad of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013, his main emphasis and praise was on Broad and his capabilities.
"Broad's only 25 so he's still learning and he's got a long career ahead of him. Consistency is the way to go at Test level and with other good bowlers around him like http://www.senore.com/Cricket/TT-Bresnan-c2711, Broad's only going to improve," McGrath
added.
