Stuart Broad agrees he 'cheated' years after infamous Ashes incident as Australia call for ban: 'Don't think I'm smug'
Former England pacer Stuart Broad, who has more than 600 wickets to his name in Test cricket, will be heading Down Under later this year for the upcoming Ashes. Broad will be a part of Channel Seven's broadcast team for the five-match marquee series between England and Australia. As soon as this development was confirmed, several Australian tabloids ran headlines saying the country's 'Enemy No.1' is coming to town for the upcoming series. Stuart Broad will be visiting Australia later this year for the upcoming Ashes. (Action Images via Reuters) The West Australian ran a piece titled, 'The Ashes: Australia's cricket enemy No.1 Stuart Broad heading Down Under with Channel 7.' Several other Australian websites also ran articles about how Broad can expect a fiery reception once he touches down in the country. The same topic was a matter of debate during commentary for the second day of the fifth and final Test between India and England at the Oval. Former England captain Michael Atherton, while commentating for Sky Cricket, showed Stuart Broad recent news articles in Australia about him joining Channel Seven as part of the broadcast team. "Well, Stuart, just to reflect on a bit of news that emerged from Down Under overnight that seems to have gone down like a bucket of sick with the locals, namely that you're going to be commentating on one of the local channels in the Ashes," said Atherton on air. "Just a reminder of how popular you are down there, the Brisbane Courier Mail, that couldn't bring themselves to put a photo of you on the front page and then called you a smug, pommy, cheat, Broadban. Are you looking forward to going down to Australia this winter to commentate on the Ashes?," he added.

He said he can agree with the "Pommy and cheat" bit, but he doesn't think he is "smug." "Well, I sort of obviously agree with the pommy and the cheat bit, but I don't think I'm smug," he said. Stuart Broad's relationship with Australia Stuart Broad was one of the most infamous England players in Australia during his playing days. The pacer was considered to be a villain Down Under after the 2013 Ashes. During the series opener at Trent Bridge, Broad edged an Ashton Agar delivery to Michael Clarke at slip. There was a clear edge, yet the left-handed batter didn't walk, and on-field umpire Aleem Dar didn't raise his finger. After the incident, the Australian media went hard at Broad, labelling him names such as "cheat" and "disgrace." He was constantly booed at every venue when England toured Australia for the Ashes. Speaking of the 2025 Ashes, the five-match series will begin on November 21 at the Optus Stadium in Perth. The final Test will be played at the Sydney Cricket Ground from January 4-8.

Think Test cricket is ‘alive and well': McGrath
Australia pace bowling legend Glenn McGrath on Friday noted the uncommon English conditions in the ongoing India-England series, but said that the series, along with the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy, has restored his confidence that Test cricket is 'alive and well.' 'It's been quite high-scoring, which is a little unusual English conditions with the Dukes cricket ball. But it hasn't been a one-sided affair. It's been good, solid Test cricket. It's been enjoyable. It's close. 'I was worried that Test cricket was struggling a bit. But after watching the Australia-India and the England-India series, I think Test cricket is alive and well, especially in those three countries. 'Obviously, they want the game to last as long as possible. I don't mind if the pitches are a little flat, as long as there's something in it for the bowler. And if the game's coming right down to the wire on the fifth day, then it's perfect, isn't it? When we saw that last game (at Old Trafford), there was a chance of a result, but India batted well and held on. Everyone's been interested and watching. I think they're getting good crowds. They haven't been slow, boring matches,' he said at the MRF-Pachaiyappa's ground here. Asked if India should ration the volume of overs that Jasprit Bumrah bowls to allow him to play more Tests, he said: 'If he's just bowling in short spells, then the batting team know they just can get through the three or four overs and then they're away. So, it depends a lot on the other bowlers. I've watched Prasidh Krishna bowl in the IPL, and I've always been a big fan of him. Unfortunately, he didn't get more opportunities in Australia. But yes, you need another group of fast bowlers coming through to balance it out so that he doesn't have to bowl long spells.' On whether Bumrah should consider staying away from white-ball formats, he said: 'He's so effective in one-day and T20 cricket. To limit himself to Test cricket would be a shame.'
