He played the first ODI against Pakistan on 30 August 2006, while the first test was against Sri Lanka on 9 December 2007.
Rise to glory
The turning point in Broad’s career came in the sixth ODI of the series against India in 2007, when he shared a record partnership for the 8th wicket of 99 runs with Ravi Bopara. He picked up four wickets as well and went on to win his first Man of the Match award.
One of the best performances came in the first session of an Ashes test of 2015. He took eight wickets while giving away mere 15 runs.
Low points
