Ex-England pacer Broad keen to take up coaching role
London, Aug 20 (PTI) His illustrious career now a part of England's cricketing folklore, legendary pace bowler Stuart Broad is planning a move towards coaching role where he can some day produce the likes of Jofra Archers and Jimmy Andersons. Broad, the second-highest wicket-taking pace bowler in Test cricket after country-mate Anderson, says he has spoken to Rob Key, managing director of the England cricket team, and expressed his desire to groom the U-17 and U-19 players. "It's certainly something I want to stay connected to, the coaching," Broad, who has taken 604 Test wickets," told The Telegraph. "I've chatted to Rob Key a little bit about doing some stuff with the younger bowlers in the England setups when the schedule suits," added the tall former pacer, who has donned the role of a broadcaster after hanging up his spikes. Broad, who figures in seventh place in the list of all-time highest wicket-takers across formats, added that though he had not set a timeline on taking the plunge into coaching, he was optimistic it could happen as early as next year. "I haven't set any sort of targets or dates of coaching or what's to come, but probably next year I'd start looking at dipping my toe into it a little bit more." Broad was a consultant to the South African cricket team ahead of their World Test Championship final against Australia at Lord's, which the Proteas won to clinch their maiden ICC world title. He believes he can play a role in accelerating the development of younger bowlers in the England set-up. "The U19s or even U17s - you really know what you're developing, and you've got your base of technique, but the growth you can make between 15 and 20 is huge." "What excites me the most is, where's the next Jofra Archer? Where's the next Jimmy Anderson? I watched on Instagram, Harry Moore, who's been out with a stress fracture. I look at him and go, 'huge talent, 6ft 6in, swings it both ways, hits good areas'. "Where could he be in four years' time? Maybe even less than that? Where can you spot these players whose ceiling is very high?" Broad says he agrees with Rob Key's plan of engaging stalwarts like Andrew Flintoff and Graeme Swann, among others, to strengthen England cricket. "I'm completely on Rob Key's side. You want your best cricket brains still sharing information to the best players, and you don't want them to be put off by having to jump through loads and loads of hoops that might be a bit unnecessary with the knowledge they've got." Broad's other desire is to become a "really good broadcaster" and believes Indian cricketer-turned-commentator Ravi Shastri has a captivating voice. "The level of analysis that Ricky Ponting gives, the detail that he's going into. The tone of voice with Ravi Shastri – how he can go up and down and pick moments to really go. I'm always looking and learning. "I'm definitely all in on the broadcasting at this moment in time, because I'm certainly not at a level that I'm comfortable with. I want to get better and better and be in those moments where I'm calling great cricket."

Indian boxers' build-up to World Championships hit by visa trouble
The Indian boxers' planned training trip to the UK ahead of the all-important World Championships has been hampered due to visa-related complications. The squad was scheduled to travel on Sunday to take part in a multinational training camp in Sheffield, a key build-up to the World Championships in Liverpool from September 4 to 14. However, only four women boxers and a few members of the coaching staff have managed to secure visas and reach the UK. The 10-member men's team and six women pugilists are still awaiting their clearances and remain at the national camp in NIS Patiala. At present, the male boxers have the services of only one coach as three others, including head coach Dharmendra Yadav, are already in Sheffield. "Yes, the three of us have reached here but all the (male) boxers are still waiting for their visas," Yadav told PTI. "We had to start sparring in the multinational camp from Wednesday but we cancelled it as we don't know when the visa will arrive and when the boxers will be able to reach here." The Interim Committee, which is managing the day-to-day affairs of the Boxing Federation of India, said it's in "constant touch" with Indian Embassy in the UK, Sports Ministry and the Sports Authority of India "to help expedite the visa process". "However, as the process is largely automated, interventions so far have not been able to resolve the delays," committee member Col Arun Malik said. "That said, we have received 3 more visas, and 12 members of our 31-member contingent, including 4 women boxers, have already reached England. "On our part, all logistical arrangements are ready, and the moment we have clarity, we will ensure that the remaining players travel to England without delay. We remain hopeful that the pending cases will be resolved soon, enabling the entire team to join the camp at the earliest," he added. Those who have reached Sheffield include two-time world champion Nikhat Zareen, Minakshi, Pooja Rani, and Nupur Sheoran. While the likes of Olympic medallist Lovlina Borgohain, Commonwealth Games bronze-winner Jaismine Lamboria, Asain Games medallist Narender Berwal, among others, are still in Patiala. "Four (female) boxers have reached and 2 coaches are there in the UK. I have received my visa but I stayed back for the BFI elections," said women's head coach D Chandralal, who is a representative of the Kerala boxing state unit for the August 21 BFI elections. "But I have given the plan to the coaches there and they will conduct training according to that. They have some sparring sessions scheduled. In the meantime after the elections I'll stay with the rest of the boxers," he added. Sheffield, home to the Great Britain Boxing headquarters, is one of the sport's most prominent training hubs. The multinational camp, running from August 17 to September 1, features teams from Ireland, France, Germany, Uzbekistan, the USA, and Poland, among others. This edition of the World Championships will be the first to be held under the aegis of the new governing body -- World Boxing. It will feature competitions across 10 weight classes for both men and women and, for the first time, male and female boxers will compete in Olympic-style events at the same championship.
