Stuart Broad, the fast bowler of the England cricket team, has expressed his desire for the team to emulate their triumph in the 2005 Ashes Series as they prepare to host Australia in the upcoming summer. The victory in the 2005 edition, which resulted in England reclaiming the coveted urn after 18 years with a 2-1 series win, is widely regarded as one of the team’s most significant accomplishments in Test cricket.

“I just want the whole series to grip the nation and inspire kids the way 2005 did. I want our players to take positive options at all times and if there’s a day we get bowled out for a 100, it is what it is. As long as the next day we come back with the same intent and become even more aggressive and entertain even more.”
“The mindset of the group and what Baz [Brendon McCullum] has brought in is that the result’s irrelevant. It’s entertainment we’re here for. I think the biggest compliment I can give is that part of me wishes I was 23. Part of me wishes I was learning my trade in this environment. I learnt under Andy Flower.”
“But imagine being Harry Brook now and coming in with that freedom and backing? There will be lots of Test cricketers from the 90s wishing they’d had this sort of backing.”
