England pacer Stuart Broad on Thursday stressed on the importance of sorting out problems within the dressing room before they take on South Africa in the third Test.

 

“If there is a problem, it is important it gets sorted and we take the field at Lord’s with 11 guys who want to win for England,” Broad said.

 

Broad’s comments came following Kevin Pietersen’s hint at quitting Test cricket after the series against the Proteas.

 

“What is vital is that we turn up to Lord’s with all 11 players making sure England win that Test and that all our energies and focus is going towards that,” Broad was quoted as saying by Sky Sports.

 

“If you just have one player slightly off, it can be quite damaging. It is important that once we get to Lord’s as a group, whoever is there, we make sure we are fully there mentally and win that game,” he added.

 

England need to win the final Test in order to retain the No 1 position in ICC Test Rankings.
