Oakham School salutes the England cricketing exploits of former pupil Stuart Broad

Oakham School has led the plaudits after one of its finest cricketing protégés etched his name into the sport’s folklore this week.

Stuart Broad began his cricketing odyssey as an 11-year-old pupil at the Rutland school and honed his talents at their Doncaster Close ground.

The Old Oakhamian has since gone on to establish himself as one of the world’s finest cricketers.
