The 22-year-old Nottinghamshire seamer returned home from a tough tour to India as one of the few England players who can look back on the last 12 months knowing he has made significant progress.

"I'm pleased with the way I've settled into Test cricket," admitted Broad, who has claimed 24 wickets in nine Tests this year. "I'd have liked to have picked up more wickets en route but I've been delighted with the way the batting has come on."

He added: "To pick up three Test fifties in my first year is pleasing because I know I can get wickets.

"I've proved at one-day international level that I can take wickets in international cricket. If I stay patient with my action and my lines and lengths, then wickets will come in the future."
