Sachin Tendulkar lauds Stuart Broad for his ‘phenomenal career’ after England’s victory at Oval in Ashes 2023
Legendary English pacer Stuart Broad announced his retirement from international cricket as the prestigious Ashes series concluded on Monday. The 37-year-old cricketer, who is one of the best bowlers in history, produced a stunning effort that helped England level the series. Notably, Australia failed to reach the target of 384 runs; hence, England won the final and final Test. In addition, Australia has never won the series since 2001 on English soil, and this time also, the Pat Cummins-led side couldn’t clinch it.
Notably, Stuart Board was the one who struck the finishing blow, grabbing the last two wickets of Todd Murphy and Alex Carey while handing a 49-run victory to the Ben Stokes-led English team. In addition, the legendary bowler ended his Test career with 604 wickets to his credit. Speaking on the same subject, Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar lauded him, called his career phenomenal, and wished him good luck for the next chapter of his life.
“A phenomenal career draws to a close. @StuartBroad8, your relentless spells and unwavering dedication will forever be etched in cricket’s annals. A fitting end to your career. Enjoy the next innings!,” Tendulkar said in his tweet.
