England’s StuartBroad8 says he considered calling it a day after he was left out of the squad for the first Test against the West Indies. | IOLsport
LONDON – England’s Stuart Broad said he considered retiring after being omitted for last month’s series opener against West Indies at Southampton.
The right-arm quick returned to claim 16 wickets in the next two tests as England won back-to-back matches to triumph 2-1, with Broad picked as the player of the series. “I can’t think of many times I have been down like that. When I have been dropped before, I can go ‘Fair enough, good decision, can’t really argue with that’.
Playing the series in a bio-secure bubble, to prevent the Covid-19 spread, made dealing with the disappointment a lot more difficult, he said.
