From the techniques and tactics he has learned, to preparing himself for action, both mentally and physically, Broad reveals the inside secrets of top-level cricket, and how anyone can apply them to their own game, either in club or schoolboy cricket. He divulges what life is like for an international cricketer, and how he copes with the pressures of life on tour. Illustrated throughout with key moments in his career and specially commissioned new photographs, this book also provides great stories of sporting heroes, setbacks and successes. Stuart Broad's world in cricket is laid bare.
