But the former bowler wasted no time in filling his schedule after taking up a job as a pundit at Sky Sports.

Many expected to see Broad, 37, during the broadcaster’s coverage of Cricket.

However, fans were left surprised when they saw him among the pundits on Sky’s Soccer Special show for Wednesday’s coverage of the Carabao Cup.

And while appearing alongside favourites like Paul Merson and Alan Pardew, Broad was labelled as the best among them despite never playing professional football before.

Taking to Twitter one, fan declared: “Only Stuart Broad being the best pundit they’ve had on @SkySportsNews in years…

“Eloquent, intelligent, and knowledgeable. More please.”

A second wrote: “Was mad to see him on there at first but Stuart Broad on his debut as a pundit was the best pundit on the show tonight.”

“Stuart Broad is the best football pundit in years. Sign him up ,” said a third.

A fourth typed: “Stuart Broad is the best pundit by a mile on the Sky SOCCER special.”

Another remarked: “Stuart Broad is genuinely the best pundit they’ve got on Soccer Special tonight, he’s actually been class.”

While a sixth added: “Stuart Broad is already the best pundit on TV.”

During the coverage, Broad kept tabs on his beloved Nottingham Forest as they hosted Burnley.

Broad was ultimately left disappointed as a 90th-minute goal from super sub Zeki Amdouni sealed a 1-0 win for the Clarets.

Forest have not won the competition since 1990.

Pardew almost stole the show after leaving the studio in silence with a story about a row with an owner of one of his former clubs.
