Stuart Broad not to sacrifice passion and aggression for captaincy – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SCJ-Broad-c2465, the newly appointed captain of England’s T20 squad, aims at perpetuating his passion and aggression along with shouldering the responsibilities of the team’s leadership. He argued that he will not let his stamina down for the sake of captaincy
and vows to manage both.
The 25-year-old replaced http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Young-c98322 pacer.
Moreover, the board, under its three-pillared approach, appointed a different skipper for each of the three versions, with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/AJ-Strauss-c964 retaining Test captaincy.
As Broad is padded-up to play his first game as captain, against Sri Lanka at Bristol today, he is confident of delivering a good bowling performance.
Talking to the media today, he said, “…I'm certainly not going to lose my passion for the game, I think it's something I thrive on.”
He further elaborated, “You always have to be aware of what you are doing. I think it will be pretty hectic and I'll have to be thinking about a lot of things. But the key is when I get the ball in my hand I don't change http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gordon-James-Muchall-c60376, have a presence and deliver
my skills."
Broad does not have prior experience in captaincy but he does not want it to become a negative point for him. He hopes that he will lead the side well.
The new captain’s availability for the one-off T20 game was uncertain by yesterday as he has been having a heel injury, and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Eoin-Joseph-Gerard-Morgan-c56032, the newly appointed T20 vice-captain, was supposed to lead the team.
However, Broad is reportedly fit right now and aims to lead his team against the Lankans today.
Broad has been somewhat off-coloured as a bowler since the last couple of months. During the three-match Test series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Flower-c44362, and Test captain, Strauss, hoped that Broad would
recover soon.
