The Beginning
Cricket was in Stuart’s blood as his father Chris Broad was already a Test cricketer for England. Following his father’s footsteps, Broad took up cricket at an early age. He began as an opening batsman and also won Leicestershire’s Young Cricketers Batsman Award at the age of 10. However, Broad soon realised his potential as a fast bowler and made rapid strides. He made his T20I debut for England in 2006 and soon established himself in all three formats of the game with his all-round performances.
