About this episode
Stuart Broad retired after dramatically taking the last two wickets in the 2023 Ashes series. Broad had no doubts that he’d picked the perfect moment to call it a day. But how do players decide the right time to retire? Daniel Norcross is joined by Sir Alastair Cook who scored a century in his last Test also at the Oval and Michael Vaughan who retired in 2009 following injury problems.
