Stuart Broad has heaped praise on Jordan Cox and says he could replace Jamie Smith as England's future wicketkeeper after the Essex batter made an impressive 73 off 100 balls in the first Test against Pakistan.
Cox - replacing the injured Jacob Bethell - came in at No 3 and hit 10 fours on the way to his maiden Test fifty in just his second match. He was one of four England top-order batters to make a half-century in an impressive performance that saw them build a 195-run lead over a lacklustre Pakistan by stumps on day two at Headingley.
Is Lawrence England's next all-rounder? Could Cox replace Smith?
