Stuart Broad's bowling an "issue" for England ahead of third Test against India

England bowling coach David Saker has admitted that Stuart Broad is struggling to impose his game in India after a lacklustre performance in the second Test.

The 26-year-old failed to claim a wicket in 12 overs in Mumbai, where the visitors managed to level the series with a 10-wicket win.

"It is a bit of an issue," Saker told Sky Sports News. "He has not bowled as we would have liked. But he's not the first bowler to come over here and find it hard.

"Stuart's not a great yet. He has to learn ways to become great. If he gets the next Test he has to be ready for it. During my tenure as bowling coach, I haven't had too many players down in confidence and form. I hope I can do some stuff over the next few days that can help."

Meanwhile, England could receive an injury boost ahead of the third Test following reports that bowler Steven Finn is on course to return to the side.
