Johannesburg: England fast bowler Stuart Broad believes that his current team are in a good position at the moment as they are looking ahead for a Test series win against Sri Lanka and Pakistan later this summer. England, who won last years’ Ashes series, started their season with a thumping victory over South Africa before making their way to the finals of the recently-concluded World T20. England, however, did not manage to claim victory in the Test series against Sri Lanka and Pakistan. Highlighting that England have seven of the nine Test trophies available, Broad said his side are motivated at the moment and have great opportunity to beat the two sides by playing some exciting cricket, Sport24 reported.

The 29-year-old admitted that his side had faced some inconsistent days due to a young squad, but added that England would continue to play their positive game. England will play three-match Test series from May 19 before taking on Pakistan in the four-match Test series starting from July 14 at the Lord’s.

England fast bowler Stuart Broad says he wants to be a regular member of the One-Day International (ODI) side in order to feature in the home World Cup in 2019. The 29-year-old has been left out of the ICC World T20 2016 and has played only two ODIs since the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015. ”I’ve got a lot of hunger and desire to get back in that team consistently,” Broad was quoted as saying by the BBC on Friday. ”A huge target is 2019. I’ve got a lot of experience, played 121 ODIs and I’ve got a pretty good record.” After England’s dismal outing in the 2015 World Cup, Broad was dropped so that the team management could bring in new faces, reported IANS.
