Aussie guiding England to Ashes win will be beautiful: Broad
London: England fast bowler Stuart Broad said on Sunday he is relishing the prospect of an Australian guiding England to an Ashes win.
Trevor Bayliss is the first ever Australian to coach England and his first test as the manager will be in the five-match Ashes series scheduled to start on July 8 in Cardiff.
“I love the fact he’s Australian, and could potentially take the Ashes away from Australia, to see a picture of an Aussie with the Three Lions on his chest, Ashes urn in his hand, that would be beautiful,” Broad was quoted as saying by bbc.com on Sunday.
“I quite like that sort of banter involved in the series.”
Buoyed by a One-Day International (ODI) series victory over World Cup finalists New Zealand, England have travelled to Spain for a four-day trip with Bayliss.
Broad added they would want to beat Australia with a smile on their faces and not by sledging them.
“You have seen in the past couple of months guys playing with smiles on their faces and playing aggressive, free-flowing, positive cricket, and that is how we will beat Australia,” Broad said.
“We won’t beat them by out-sledging them.”
The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.
Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
