Nevertheless, there’s confidence in the air since former cricketer Stuart Broad thinks the squad can win everything and hoist the cherished cup one more time. Back-to-back victories over Oman and Namibia turned the tide for England, who were about to be eliminated from the ongoing T20 World Cup. The Jos Buttler-led team eventually qualified on Net Run Rate (NRR).
England’s Super Eight opponents include the USA, South Africa, and the West Indies. Broad’s analysis of the West Indies’ circumstances prior to that stated that one side of the boundary can be protected due to wind movement. Reece Topley joining the playing XI appealed to him as well because the pacer can attack the angle and take out a side.
“I see windy cricket grounds, usually from a side breeze, in Antigua and Barbados. In other words, you can defend one side. The right-hander may strike the longer boundary while facing the wind. Speaking at the launch of Sage’s Small Business XI, Broad stated, “You can bowl slower into the pitch so they can only bowl that way.”
“Reece Topley is a good addition to the team because he gives you an attacking angle that you can use to push people to one side. However, the batting unit’s left/right hand combinations have a flaw. Ben Duckett isn’t participating; it’s only Moeen Ali and Sam Curran. As demonstrated against Australia, Adam Zampa could close it down for the right-handers by bowling leg spin when there was a short boundary on one side. To the larger border, the right-handers were hitting into the wind. The 37-year-old continued, “That is a problem.
Keeping South Africa, India, and England ahead of others, Stuart Broad
India, South Africa, and England are the three most dangerous sides in the current tournament, according to Broad. But the cricketer from Nottingham explained that while there are many teams in the league that might cause problems for other teams, those three teams will still be leading the race.
“You can win the game if two players have a good day. You are probably winning if someone hits 110 on 50 balls. It is quite hard to forecast because of this. Both India and England possess those two players without a doubt. South Africa does, and their roster is largely made up of celebrities. England is undoubtedly one of the many sides you feel could pose a threat, the former cricket player stated.
