Ruled out of the ongoing Test series due to a tear in his right calf, a “gutted” England seamer Stuart Broad will take his time to recover before getting on with preparations for the Ashes in Australia that begins in December.
“Things can change so quickly. A moment before training all smiles, then during the warm-up, I jumped a hurdle, landed a bit awkwardly on my right ankle, then the next step felt like I’d been whipped by a rope as hard as you can imagine on the back of my leg.
“I actually turned to @jimmya9 (James Anderson) & asked why he whipped me! But when I realised he was nowhere near me, I knew I was in trouble. Scans say grade 3 calf. Season over & gutted to miss this India Test Series but a huge focus on Australia now,” Broad wrote on Instagram.
