‘I love baseball. This approach can work in any country and in any situation. England performed well in Hyderabad.
We won 3-0 once morest Pakistan. New Zealand also performed well. Baseball is driving cricket forward. It is also very exciting to watch.
I loved the way England beat India in Hyderabad and the way Australia lost to the West Indies at the Gabba. Test cricket is at its best,” Broad said.

“Virat not playing is a big shame for this series itself. He is a champion player. But family comes first. India won the last Test. In his absence, this is an opportunity for young players to prove themselves,’ he continued.
