On this occasion, Yuvraj Singh wrote on his social media that Take a bowl Stuart Broad Congratulations on an amazing Test run. One of the best and most dangerous red ball bowlers, and a true legend. His journey and determination have been extremely inspiring. Best of luck for the next step, Brody. This Yuvraj post is going very viral on social media. Yuvraj Singh struck Stuart Broad for six sixes in an over in the 2007 T20 World Cup.
In his final Test innings, Broad failed to score from Mitchell Starc’s first five deliveries, but managed to hit the left-arm pacer for a six over midwicket on the last ball. This turned out to be Broad’s last ball in Test cricket as Anderson, batting at the other end, was disallowed in the next over by Todd Murphy. Anderson’s sacking meant England were bowled out for 395 in 81.5 overs, which set Australia on a target of 384, with Broad aiming to take more wickets in their final Test match and leave the hosts with the current series.
