[1/2] Cricket - Second Test - England v New Zealand - Trent Bridge, Nottingham, Britain - June 14, 2022 England's Stuart Broad walks in ahead of play Action Images via Reuters/Andrew Boyers/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 29 (Reuters) - The Pavilion End at Trent Bridge will be renamed the Stuart Broad End to recognise one of England's greatest bowlers who retired earlier this year after the Ashes series. Broad, who played his final test in July when England tied 2-2 with Australia, took 604 test wickets -- behind only Muttiah Muralitharan, Shane Warne, James Anderson and Anil Kumble. The Pavilion End holds a special place in Broad's heart as he bagged the only test hat-trick seen at the venue, against India in 2011. Broad picked up 190 wickets in 43 appearances for county and country at Trent Bridge. Broad's former team mate Anderson, England's leading wicket taker, had an end named after him in 2017 at his home ground Old Trafford -- the end where Broad picked up his 600th test wicket.

June 1 (Reuters) - One lucky punter who believed 14 years ago that Josh Tongue would one day play for England and placed a cheeky bet will win 50,000 pounds ($63,000) when the fast bowler makes his international debut against Ireland on Thursday. Tim Piper had watched Tongue play when he was just an 11-year-old and placed a 100-pound bet at odds of 500-1 that he would play a test match for England in the future. "I've kept the bet slip in a cupboard all these years," Piper told BBC Sport. Tongue had, however, contemplated retirement during a 15-month shoulder-injury layoff from 2021-2022 before two operations and botox injections fixed the issue.
