Clean-cut Broad shows a hint of menace
Stuart Broad's turning out to be one of the most expressive England cricketers around. Apart from taking wickets, he's also in the news for the wrong reasons, like the ball-tampering allegation and on-field conduct. He tells Simon Briggs of the Telegraph that he is just a passionate cricketer.
"Obviously I don't want to get overstep the mark, so it's something I'm aware of. But I certainly don't want to lose my passion for the game and I don't want to be tamed down. I have to be in that sort of bubble to get the best out of myself. When I watch my favourite teams play other sports, I think of Wayne Rooney who throws himself about and is aggressive and passionate, and people like Martin Johnson who used to get stuck in."
