Stuart Broad suggests major change in Test cricket. Punish the bowlers, but I’d make every no-ball a free hit because how cool would it be to be sitting in the stands with all the fielders surrounding the bat and then the batter could just whack one?” added Broad.
Former English pacer Stuart Broad has revealed one rule in Test cricket that he would want to change. The 37-year-old stated that no-balls will be a free hit. With this rule, the former pacer believes that bowlers would be penalized more in Test cricket. It may be more interesting for fans to witness batters muscling balls out of the park more frequently.
Notably, Broad announced his retirement from Test cricket after England drew the Ashes 2-2 at home. A group of children, along with former cricketers Simon Doull and Nick Knight, questioned Broad and experienced pacer James Anderson. Broad ask to name one rule in cricket that he would change.
