Stuart Broad Revealed That He Was Born With One And Half Lungs

Stuart Broad Revealed That He Was Born With One And Half Lungs: Stuart Broad has recently announced his retirement after the end of Ashes 2023. Stuart Broad, the acclaimed English cricketer, was noted for his compelling performance on the first day of the second Test between England and Pakistan in 2020. Despite being an asthmatic, Broad maintained an impactful presence on the field. His bravery surfaced when he called for an inhaler during his fourth over, due to noticeable discomfort.

However, displaying grit, Broad continued his spell regardless of delayed assistance. Even under such circumstances, he managed to keep his performance unaffected. The pacer’s performance during this spell was commendable – his figures stood at 5-2-7-0. In fact, he nearly ousted Pakistan’s Azhar Ali, who had a lucky escape after being dropped in the slips.

Broad, who had kept his asthmatic condition a secret until England’s pre-Ashes training camp in 2015, surprised everyone with the disclosure. At this camp, the players had an exercise where they had to share an unknown fact about themselves. Broad’s revelation shocked everyone – the fact that he was asthmatic and had been playing international cricket with a lung and a half, having been born three months premature.

In an article in the Daily Mail, Broad elucidated his condition, stating he was born so prematurely that one of his lungs hadn’t fully developed. This was the reason for his asthma and the need for an inhaler. While these would typically be hurdles, Broad assured that they never hindered his sports career.
