After having an illustrious cricketing career, former England pacer Stuart Broad is looking forward to taking up the coaching role with the aim of producing the likes of Jofra Archer and James Anderson.
Broad, who is the second-highest wicket-taking pacer in Test history, revealed that he has spoken to Rob Key, managing director of the England cricket team, on his desire to groom the U-17 and U-19 players.
"It's certainly something I want to stay connected to, the coaching. I've chatted to Rob Key a little bit about doing some stuff with the younger bowlers in the England setups when the schedule suits," said the veteran of 167 Test matches.
"I haven't set any sort of targets or dates of coaching or what's to come, but probably next year I'd start looking at dipping my toe into it a little bit more," added Broad.
He was also appointed as a consultant for South Africa's team before the start of the World Test Championship final against Australia. Additionally, the Proteas clinched their first-ever ICC World title.
Speaking about coaching the young talents, the former pacer said that a player can make huge growth between the ages of 15 to 20.
"The U19s or even U17s - you really know what you're developing, and you've got your base of technique, but the growth you can make between 15 and 20 is huge," said Broad, who has 604 Test wickets to his name.

"What excites me the most is, where's the next Jofra Archer? Where's the next Jimmy Anderson? I watched on Instagram, Harry Moore, who's been out with a stress fracture. I look at him and go, 'huge talent, 6ft 6in, swings it both ways, hits good areas,' said the 39-year-old.
"Where could he be in four years' time? Maybe even less than that? Where can you spot these players whose ceiling is very high?," he questioned.
Recently, the "Three Lions" ended their five-match Test series against Team India with a 2-2 draw.
