LONDON: Stuart Broad is looking forward to gaining some inside knowledge on Australia after England appointed Troy Cooley as a consultant pace bowling coach ahead of the upcoming Ashes series.
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced Wednesday that Cooley, a 55-year-old Australian, will aid the tourists’ quicks in Brisbane under the direction of elite pace bowling coach Jon Lewis.
He will then assist the seamers in England’s second-string Lions squad when they face Australia A in a four-day match that starts on December 9.
Cooley was England’s bowling coach during their 2005 Ashes series success and subsequently took up a similar role with Australia.
“(Cooley) arrived when we got out of quarantine (on) Saturday, but he’s with us for a decent period of time,” Broad told cricket.com.au. “Really looking forward to picking his brain on Australian conditions, and Australian players, to be honest.”
